EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about an event that happened during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). 'Abd al-Rahman b. Samura reported that he was shooting some of his arrows when suddenly, the sun eclipsed. This event is known as Khasafa in Arabic and it is a natural phenomenon where the moon passes between Earth and Sun, blocking out sunlight from reaching Earth's surface. It can be seen as a reminder from Allah to His people to remember Him and His power over all things in this world. It also serves as a reminder for us to be thankful for all that He has given us and not take anything for granted. Furthermore, this hadith teaches us to always be mindful of our actions no matter what we are doing because Allah knows everything we do at all times.
