1500. ‘Aishah said: “The Prophet ﷺ went out and the sun became eclipsed. We went out to the apartment and some women gathered around us. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ turned to us, and that was at the time of the forenoon. He stood for a long time, then he bowed for a long time, then he raised his head and stood for a shorter time than the first, then he bowed for a shorter time than the first, then he prostrated. Then he stood up again and did the same, except that he stood and bowed for a shorter time than in the first Rak’ah. Then he prostrated and the eclipse ended. When he had finished he sat on the Minbar and among the things he said was: “The people will be tried in their graves like the trial of the Dajjal.” (Sahih)

Commentary
The trial in the graves signifies the’ interrogation by the angels, which is an extremely hard stage and on which depends one’s redemption. After the Resurrection or the Gathering, its details will unfold. May Allāh make us triumphant.
