Mishkat al-Masabih — Hadith #48689

On the authority of Al-Numan bin Bashir, he said: The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, so he began to pray two rak’ahs and ask About it until the sun rose. Narrated by Abu Dawood. And in Al-Nasa’i’s narration: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, prayed when The sun was eclipsed, just like our prayer. He kneels and prostrates, and he has another: That the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, went out one day in a hurry to the mosque. The sun eclipsed, so he prayed until it set, then he said: “The people of pre-Islamic times used to say: The sun and the moon do not They only eclipse due to the death of a great one of the great people of the earth, and the sun and the moon do not eclipse due to the death of anyone or his life, but they “There are two creatures from among His creation. God causes whatever He wills to His creation. So which of the two of them is lost, pray until it is cleared or God causes something to happen.”
