nasai:1463Muḥammad b. Kāmil al-Marwazī > Hushaym > Yūnus > al-Ḥasan > Abū Bakrah

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The sun and moon are two signs of Allah ﷺ, and they do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of anyone. If you see that then pray until it (the eclipse) is over.'"  

النسائي:١٤٦٣أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَامِلٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ ﷻ وَإِنَّهُمَا لاَ يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلاَ لِحَيَاتِهِ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُمَا فَصَلُّوا حَتَّى تَنْجَلِيَ  

nasai:1464ʿAmr b. ʿAlī And Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-Aʿlá > Khālid > Ashʿath > al-Ḥasan > Abū Bakrah

"We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when the sun became eclipsed. He leapt up, dragging his garment and prayed two rak'ahs until the eclipse was over."  

النسائي:١٤٦٤أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَوَثَبَ يَجُرُّ ثَوْبَهُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ حَتَّى انْجَلَتْ
