The sun was eclipsed on the day that Ibrahim, the son of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, died, and people said, "The sun has been eclipsed because of Ibrahim's death."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The sun and the moon are two of Allah's signs. They are not eclipsed for anyone's death or anyone's birth. So when you see them like that, hasten to the mosques."Then he stood and recited, as far as we could tell, part of "Alif Lam Ra. A Book" [Ibrahim 14:1]. Then he bowed, then straightened up, then made two prostrations. Then he stood again and did just as he had done in the first cycle.
كسفت الشمس يوم مات إبراهيم ابن رسول الله ﷺ فقالوا: كسفت الشمس لموت إبراهيم، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: إن الشمس والقمر آيتان من آيات الله، ألا وإنهما لا ينكسفان لموت أحد ولا لحياته، فإذا رأيتموهما كذلك فافزعوا إلى المساجد ثم قام فقرأ فيما نرى بعض {الر كتب} [سورة إبراهيم] ثم ركع ثم اعتدل، ثم سجد سجدتين، ثم قام ففعل مثل ما فعل في الأولى.
Imam Ahmad (23629) narrated it from Yahya bin Adam, who said, Abdul-Rahman bin Sulayman bin Ghusayl told us, from Asim bin Umar bin Qatada, from Mahmud bin Labeed, and he related it.Its narrators are the narrators of the sahih, as Haythami said in Majma (2/207), except that Abdul-Rahman bin Sulayman bin Ghusayl, his hadith is hasan.As for his saying, "Then he bowed, then he stood up straight, then he prostrated twice," this is how he related it in abridged form, but the sound and established fact is that he bowed twice in a single rakat.
