1051. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr رضي الله عنه: When the sun eclipsed in the lifetime of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and an announcement Aṣ-Ṣalātu Jāmi'a [that Aṣ-Ṣalāt (the prayer) was to be held in congregation]. The Prophet ﷺ performed two bowings in one Rak'a. Then he stood up and performed two bowings in one Rak'a. Then he sat down and finished the Ṣalāt (prayer); and by then the (eclipse) had cleared. 'Aīshah رضي الله عنها said, "I had never performed such a long prostration."
1051 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، نُودِيَ: «إِنَّ الصَّلاَةَ جَامِعَةٌ، فَرَكَعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي سَجْدَةٍ، ثُمَّ قَامَ، فَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي سَجْدَةٍ، ثُمَّ جَلَسَ، ثُمَّ جُلِّيَ عَنِ الشَّمْسِ»، قَالَ: وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: مَا سَجَدْتُ سُجُودًا قَطُّ كَانَ أَطْوَلَ مِنْهَا
