[Machine] When the sun was blocked during the time of the Prophet Muhammad, ﷺ , it was announced that the prayer should be performed in congregation. The Prophet Muhammad, ﷺ , then performed two units of prayer in one prostration, then stood up and performed two units of prayer in one prostration, then sat until the sun was uncovered.  

لَمَّا كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نُودِيَ أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةٌ فَرَكَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي سَجْدَةٍ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي سَجْدَةٍ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ حَتَّى جُلِّيَ عَنِ الشَّمْسِ  

[Machine] The sun became covered during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so he sent a caller who called for a congregational prayer. The people gathered and he led them in four units of prayer, with four prostrations in each unit. Then he recited the Tashahhud and made the Salam. This narration is found in the authentic hadith, reported by Muhammad ibn Mihran from Al-Walid ibn Muslim.  

كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَعَثَ مُنَادِيًا فَنَادَى الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِأَرْبَعِ سَجَدَاتٍ ثُمَّ تَشَهَّدَ وَسَلَّمَ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ
