Sunan Ibn Majah 1263
It was
narrated that ‘Aishah said:
“The sun was eclipsed during the
life
of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
went
out to the mosque and stood and said the Takbir, and the people
formed rows behind him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited for a
long time, then he said the Takbir and bowed for a long time. Then he
raised his head and said: ‘Sami’ Allahu liman hamidah, Rabban was
lakal-hamd.’ Then he stood and recited for a long time, but shorter
than the first recitation. Then he said the Takbir and bowed for a
long time, but less than the first bowing. Then he said: ‘Sami’
Allahu
liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd.’ Then he did the same
in the
next Rak’ah, and he completed four Rak’ah and four sets of
prostration, and the eclipse ended before he finished. Then he stood
and addressed the people. He praised Allah as He deserves to be
praised, then he said: ‘The sun and the moon are two of the signs
of
Allah. They do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of
anyone.
If you see that then seek help in prayer.’”
