أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، ( ح ) وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ يُحَدِّثُ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ أُصَدِّقُ قَالَ: فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ يُرِيدُ عَائِشَةَ ؓ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ:
كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ بِالنَّاسِ قِيَامًا شَدِيدًا، يَقُومُ بِالنَّاسِ، ثُمَّ يَرْكَعُ، ثُمَّ يَقُومُ، ثُمَّ يَرْكَعُ، فَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ ثَلَاثُ رَكَعَاتٍ، فَرَكَعَ الثَّالِثَةَ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ، حَتَّى إِنَّ رِجَالًا يَوْمَئِذٍ لَيُغْشَى عَلَيْهِمْ، حَتَّى إِنَّ سِجَالَ الْمَاءِ لَيُصَبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مِمَّا قَامَ بِهِمْ، يَقُولُ إِذَا كَبَّرَ: " اللهُ أَكْبَرُ "، فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ قَالَ: " سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ "، فَلَمْ يَنْصَرِفْ حَتَّى تَجَلَّتِ الشَّمْسُ، فَقَامَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، وَقَالَ: إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلَا لِحَيَاتِهِ، وَلَكِنَّهُمَا آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللهِ يُخَوِّفُكُمْ بِهِمَا، فَإِذَا كَسَفَا فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى [ذِكْرِ] اللهِ حَتَّى يَنْجَلِيَا.

✧ The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of God ﷺ. He led the people in a very long standing. He would stand, then bow, then stand, then bow, and he bowed two genuflections in each rakʿah with three bowings. He bowed the third time, then prostrated. On that day, men fainted, and buckets of water were poured on them because of the length of his standing. When he said the takbir, he said, 'God is greatest,' and when he raised his head, he said, 'God hears those who praise Him.' He did not finish until the sun became clear. Then he stood, praised God and extolled Him, and said, 'The sun and the moon do not eclipse for the death or life of anyone, but they are two signs among the signs of God by which He frightens you. So when they eclipse, hasten to the remembrance of God until they clear.'

غيره من الروايات التي خالفته معلولة ضعيفة يعني من قال أن صلاة كسوف الشمس ركعتان في كل ركعة ركوعان هو الصحيح ومن خالفه معلول
machine translationThe other narrations that contradict it are defective (maʿlūl) and weak (ḍaʿīf). That is, whoever said that the eclipse prayer for the sun is two rakʿahs, with two bowings (rukūʿ) in each rakʿah, has the sound (ṣaḥīḥ) report, and whoever contradicts it is defective (maʿlūl).
