In the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, there was an event called a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse is when the moon passes between the sun and earth, blocking out some or all of the sunlight from reaching us. During this time, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ offered a two rak'at prayer to Allah SWT. This shows us that we should always turn to Allah SWT in times of difficulty and ask for His help and guidance. We should also remember that He is always with us no matter what happens in our lives.
