[Machine] He prayed four units and four prostrations during the solar eclipse. In the first unit, he recited Surah al-Ankabut, and in the second unit, he recited Surah Luqman or Ar-Rum [Surah 30]. It was narrated from Hanash from Ali that he recited the prayer aloud during the solar eclipse. And what Abu Isa At-Tirmidhi narrated from Muhammad bin Ismail Al-Bukhari that he said, "The hadith of Aisha is more authentic to me than the hadith of Samurah. The Prophet ﷺ recited the prayer aloud during the solar eclipse." Imam Ahmad, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "The hadith of Aisha about reciting aloud is unique to Az-Zuhri. And we have also narrated from another source from Aisha, then from Ibn Abbas. It indicates the possibility of both secret and loud recitation, and Allah knows best."
