Hadith 2910

عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ قَالَ: كَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ فِي عَهْدِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَبِالْمَدِينَةِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: فَخَرَجَ عُثْمَانُ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ عُثْمَانُ فَدَخَلَ دَارَهُ وَجَلَسَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ إِلَى حُجْرَةِ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا وَجَلَسْنَا إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَأْمُرُنَا بِالصَّلَاةِ عِنْدَ كُسُوفِ الشَّمْسِ وَالْقَمَرِ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ قَدْ أَصَابَهُمَا فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَإِنَّهَا إِنْ كَانَتِ الَّتِي تَحْذَرُونَ كَانَتْ وَأَنْتُمْ عَلَى غَيْرِ غَفْلَةٍ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ كُنْتُمْ قَدْ أَصَبْتُمْ خَيْرًا وَاكْتَسَبْتُمُوهُ
Abu Shurayh Khuza'i says: During the time of Sayyiduna Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), there was a solar eclipse. Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was also present in Madinah Munawwarah. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) came out and led the people in a two-rak'ah prayer, with two bowings (ruku) and two prostrations (sujood) in each rak'ah. When Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) finished the prayer, he entered his house. Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Mas'ud was sitting towards the chamber of Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), and we also went and sat with him. He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to command us to perform prayer at the time of solar and lunar eclipses. When you see that they have been eclipsed, hasten towards prayer. If it is that very thing which you fear, then (because of this prayer) you will not be heedless, and if it is not that, then you will attain good and earn reward.
