[2119] 26 - (...) It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahmân bin Samurah, who was one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, said: "I was shooting my arrows in Al-Madinah at the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ when the sun was eclipsed. I came to him and he was standing in prayer, raising his hands - glorifying Allâh, praising Him, proclaiming that there is none worthy of worship but Him, proclaiming His greatness, and calling upon Him - until the eclipse ended. When it ended, he recited two Sûrah and prayed two Rak'ah."

Arabic text

26 - (913) وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ حَيَّانَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَرْتَمِي بِأَسْهُمٍ لِي بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، إِذْ كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ، فَنَبَذْتُهَا، فَقُلْتُ: وَاللهِ لَأَنْظُرَنَّ إِلَى مَا حَدَثَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي كُسُوفِ الشَّمْسِ، قَالَ: «فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ فِي الصَّلَاةِ رَافِعٌ يَدَيْهِ، فَجَعَلَ يُسَبِّحُ، وَيَحْمَدُ، وَيُهَلِّلُ، وَيُكَبِّرُ، وَيَدْعُو، حَتَّى حُسِرَ عَنْهَا»، قَالَ: «فَلَمَّا حُسِرَ عَنْهَا، قَرَأَ سُورَتَيْنِ وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ».
