Hadrat Jabir ibn Abdullah (may Allah be well pleased with them both) narrates: A solar eclipse occurred during the time of the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) — and it was the same day that Ibrahim, the son of the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), passed away. People said: 'The eclipse happened because of Ibrahim's death.' The Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) stood and led the people in prayer with six bowings and four prostrations. He said takbir, then recited at length. Then he bowed for about as long as the standing. Then he raised his head and recited less than the first. Then he bowed for about as long as the standing. Then he raised his head and recited a third time, shorter than the second. Then he bowed for about as long as the standing. Then he raised his head and went into prostration — two prostrations. Then he stood for the second rak'ah and made three bowings before prostrating — each bowing shorter than the previous one, but each bowing approximately as long as the standing. He said: Then the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) stepped back during the prayer and the rows stepped back. Then he advanced and stood in his place and the rows advanced. He completed the prayer and the sun had cleared. Then he stated: 'O people, the sun and the moon are two signs from among the signs of Allah the Almighty. They do not eclipse because of the death of any human being. When you see such a thing, pray until it clears.' And he narrated the rest of the hadith.
