حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ مَاتَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ، فَقَالَ النَّاسُ: كَسَفَتْ لِمَوْتِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَةٌ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللهِ لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ (١) لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ، وَلَا لِحَيَاتِهِ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ، فَصَلُّوا وَادْعُوا اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day when the son of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), Ibrahim, passed away, there was a solar eclipse. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) stood up and delivered a sermon, saying: "The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of anyone's death. They are two signs among the signs of Allah. Therefore, when either of them is eclipsed, you should immediately turn towards prayer until it is over."
