'Aishah said: "The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) went out and the sun became eclipsed. We went out to the apartment and some women gathered around us. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) turned to us, and that was at the time of the forenoon. He stood for a long time, then he bowed for a long time, then he raised his head and stood for a shorter time than the first, then he bowed for a shorter time than the first, then he prostrated. Then he stood up again and did the same, except that he stood and bowed for a shorter time than in the first rak'ah. Then he prostrated and the eclipse ended. When he had finished he sat on the minbar and among the things he said was: 'The people will be tried in their graves like the trial of the Dajjal.'"

Umm al-Mu’minin Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), the sun was eclipsed, so he stood up and led the people in prayer. He stood for a very long time, then bowed (ruku’) for a very long time, then raised his head from ruku’, then stood again for a very long time, and this standing was shorter than the first. Then he bowed for a long time, and this bowing was shorter than the first. Then he prostrated (sajdah), then raised his head from prostration and stood for a long time, and this was shorter than before. Then he bowed for a long time, and this bowing was shorter than the first. Then he raised his head from ruku’ and stood for a long time, and this standing was shorter than the previous one. Then he bowed for a long time, and this bowing was shorter than the first. Then he prostrated until, when he finished the prayer, the eclipse had cleared from the sun. Then he addressed the people, praised and glorified Allah, then said:“The sun and the moon are not eclipsed because of the death or birth of anyone. Therefore, when you see this, pray, give charity, and remember Allah the Exalted.”He also said:“O Ummah of Muhammad! There is no one more protective than Allah regarding His servant or His maidservant committing adultery. O Ummah of Muhammad! If you knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep much.”

It was narrated from Samurah that: The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) delivered a Khutbah when the sun eclipsed and he said: 'Amma ba'd (to proceed).'"

It was narrated that Abu Bakrah said: "We were with the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and the sun became eclipsed. He got up and went to the masjid, dragging his garment in haste. The people stood with him and he prayed two rak'ahs as they usually prayed. When the eclipse ended he addressed us and said 'The sun and the moon are two of the signs of Allah (SWT), with which He strikes fear into His slaves. They do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of anyone. If you see either of them being eclipsed, then pray and supplicate until it removed it from you.'"

It was narrated that Abu Musa said: "There was an eclipse of the sun, and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) got up in a rush, fearing that it might be the Hour. He went to the masjid, where he stood and prayed, standing, bowing and prostrating for the longest time that I ever saw him do in prayer. Then he said: 'These signs that Allah (SWT) sends do not occur for the death or birth of anyone, but Allah (SWT) sends them to strike fear into His slaves. If you see any of these things, then hasten to remember Him, call upon Him supplicate and ask for His forgiveness.'"
