Offer prayers during an eclipse with humility & sincerity towards God .

This hadith explains the importance of offering prayer during a solar eclipse. It was narrated by Aisha that on the day of a solar eclipse, Prophet Muhammad stood up to offer the eclipse prayer. He recited Takbir, recited a long recitation from Holy Verses, bowed for a long time and then raised his head saying “Allah hears him who sends his praises to Him”. Then he stayed standing, recited another long recitation but shorter than before, bowed again but shorter than before and performed two rak'as in the same way as he did in first one. By the time he finished his prayer with Taslim, the solar eclipse was over. He then addressed people referring to both lunar and solar eclipses saying that these are two signs amongst Signs of Allah which do not occur due to anyone's death or life so if you see them you should hasten for Prayer. This hadith teaches us that we should be mindful when we witness any natural phenomenon like an eclipse because it is one of Allah’s signs which remind us about His greatness and power over all things in this universe. We should also remember that these events are not related to anyone’s death or life so they shouldn't be taken lightly but rather used as an opportunity for spiritual growth by offering prayers with humility and sincerity towards our Creator who has given us such beautiful signs as reminders about His greatness and power over all things in this universe .
