وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لَا يَنْخَسِفُ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ وَلَا لِشَيْءٍ تُحْدِثُونَهُ وَلَكِنَّ ذَلِكُمْ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللهِ يَعْبُرُ بِهَا عِبَادَهُ لِيَشْكُرَ مَنْ يَخَافُهُ وَيَذْكُرَهُ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ بَعْضَ آيَاتِ اللهِ ﷻ فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللهِ فَاذْكُرُوهُ وَاخْشَوْهُ» وَكَانَ صَلَّى لَنَا يَوْمَ خَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ وَعَظَنَا وَذَكَّرَنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «مَا رَأَيْتُمْ فِي شَيْءٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا لَهُ لَوْنٌ وَلَا نُبِّئْتُمْ بِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَلَا فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا وَقَدْ صُوِّرَ لِي فِي قِبَلِ هَذَا الْجِدَارِ مُنْذُ صَلَّيْتُ لَكُمْ صَلَاتِي هَذِهِ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ مَنْظُورًا فِي جِدَارِ الْمَسْجِدِ»

- Samurah b. Jundub
✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ used to say: 'The sun and the moon do not eclipse for the death of anyone among you nor for anything you cause, but that is among the signs of God by which He makes His servants take heed, so that whoever fears Him may be grateful and remember Him. So when you see any of the signs of God ﷻ, hasten to the remembrance of God, so remember Him and fear Him.' He prayed with us on the day the sun eclipsed, then he admonished us and reminded us, then he said: 'I have not seen anything in this world that has a color, nor have I been told of anything in Paradise or in Hell, except that it was pictured for me facing this wall since I prayed this prayer of mine with you, and I looked at it, visible on the wall of the mosque.'
