Ata said: I heard Ubaid Bin Umair say:Someone whom I trust- and I think he meant Aishah- told me: There was an eclipse of the sun during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He led the people in prayer and stood for a very long time; then he bowed; then he stood; then he bowed; then he stood; then he bowed. He prayed two rakahs; bowing three times in each rakah. After bowing for the third time he prostrated for a long time. Some men fainted on that day and had to be revived by having buckets of water thrown over them; because of having stood for so log. When he bowed; he said: Allahu Akbar; and when he raised his head; he said: Sami Allahu lima hamidah.He did not finish until the eclipse had ended. Then he stood and praised and glorified Allah SWT and said: The sun and moon do not eclipse for the death or birth of anyone; but they are two of the signs of Allah SWT with which He strikes fear unto you. If they are eclipsed then turn to the remembrance of Allah; the Mighty and Sublime; until it the eclipse is over.
