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.”
“ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ، لاَ يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلاَ لِحَيَاتِهِ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُمَا فَادْعُوا اللَّهَ وَصَلُّوا حَتَّى يَنْجَلِيَ ”.
