قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : وَفِي خَبَرِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ " أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ خَطَبَ أَيْضًا قَبْلَ الصَّلاةِ " . فَيَنْبَغِي لِلإِمَامِ فِي الْكُسُوفِ أَنْ يَخْطُبَ قَبْلَ الصَّلاةِ وَبَعْدَهَا
Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that in the narration of Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon before the prayer as well. Therefore, the Imam should deliver a sermon before and after the eclipse prayer.
