Surah (:)
Sahih al-Bukhari
Eclipses
Chapter: Invocation during the eclipse
Narrated Al-Mughira bin Shu`ba:
On the day of Ibrahim's death, the sun eclipsed and the people said that the eclipse was due to the death of Ibrahim (the son of the Prophet). Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The sun and the moon are two signs amongst the signs of Allah. They do not eclipse because of someone's death or life. So when you see them, invoke Allah and pray till the eclipse is clear."
Sahih al-Bukhari 1060
