حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى وَرِبْعِىُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْمَعْنَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ قَالَ
كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَامَ يَجُرُّ ثَوْبَهُ مُسْتَعْجِلًا حَتَّى أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ، وَثَابَ النَّاسُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَجُلِّيَ عَنْهَا، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ: إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى]، يُخَوِّفُ بِهِمَا عِبَادَهُ، وَلَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ قَالَ: وَكَانَ ابْنُهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ] مَاتَ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ مِنْهُمَا شَيْئًا فَصَلُّوا وَادْعُوا، حَتَّى يُكْشَفَ مَا بِكُمْ.

✧ The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He stood up, dragging his garment in haste, until he came to the mosque. The people gathered, and he prayed two rak'ahs, and then it cleared. He turned to us and said: 'Indeed, the sun and the moon are two signs among the signs of Allah [Blessed and Exalted]. He frightens His servants with them, and they do not eclipse for the death of anyone.' He said: His son Ibrahim ﷺ had died. 'So when you see anything of them, pray and supplicate until what has befallen you is cleared.'
