English translation

1486. It was narrated that An-Nu'mân bin Bashîr said: "The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he rushed out dragging his cloak until he came to the Masjid. He continued leading us in prayer until the eclipse ended. When it ended he said: 'People claim that the eclipse of the sun and the moon only happens when a great man dies, but that is not so. Eclipses of the sun and the moon do not happen for the death or birth of anyone, but they are signs from Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime. When Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, manifests Himself to anything of His creation, it humbles itself before Him, so if you see that then pray like the last obligatory prayer you did before that.'" (Qa'f)

Arabic text

1485 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، قَالَ: انْكَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَخَرَجَ يَجُرُّ ثَوْبَهُ فَزِعًا، حَتَّى أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يُصَلِّي بِنَا حَتَّى انْجَلَتْ، فَلَمَّا انْجَلَتْ، قَالَ: «إِنَّ نَاسًا يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ إِلَّا لِمَوْتِ عَظِيمٍ مِنَ الْعُظَمَاءِ، وَلَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلَا لِحَيَاتِهِ، وَلَكِنَّهُمَا آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِذَا بَدَا لِشَيْءٍ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ خَشَعَ لَهُ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَصَلُّوا كَأَحْدَثِ صَلَاةٍ صَلَّيْتُمُوهَا مِنَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ»
