1480. It was narrated that ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr said: “The sun was eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, so he issued orders that the call be given: ‘Aṣ-ṣalātu jāmi’ah’. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ led the people in prayer, bowing twice and prostrating twice. Then he stood and prayed, bowing twice and prostrating once. ‘Aīshah said: ‘I never bowed or prostrated for so long as that.’” (Saḥīḥ) Muḥammad bin Hīmar contradicted him.[1]

Commentary
This confliction exists in the chain of transmission, as well as in the text of the
Hadīth; as is elucidated by the upcoming narration. The conflation in the chain of transmission is that Marwan has shown Abū Salamah to be the Shaikh of Yahya bin Abi Kathīr, whereas Ibn Himyar mentioned Abū Tu'mah instead of Abū Salamah. And in the next, Marwan has stated Sajda - "prostrated, while Muḥammad bin Himyar has said Sajdatain - two prostrations."
