English translation

1179. It was reported from Abū Az-Zubair, from Jābir, who said: "There was a solar eclipse during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ on a very hot day. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ led the Companions in prayer, and stood up for a long time — so much so that they began to fall. Then he went into Rukū' for a long time, then he stood up for a long time, then he went into Rukū' for a long time, then he stood up for a long time. Then he prostrated twice, and then stood up and repeated these acts. So it was four Rukū's and four prostrations..." and he completed the remainder of the Ḥadīth (as in no. 1178). (Ṣaḥīh)

1179 - حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: كُسِفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي يَوْمٍ شَدِيدِ الْحَرِّ، فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَصْحَابِهِ، فَأَطَالَ الْقِيَامَ حَتَّى جَعَلُوا يَخِرُّونَ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَأَطَالَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَأَطَالَ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَأَطَالَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَأَطَالَ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَنَعَ نَحْوًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَكَانَ أَرْبَعُ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَأَرْبَعُ سَجَدَاتٍ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ
