Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 1398 — 656| Command to give charity at the solar

نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، نَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : خَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ ، وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ : ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لا تَخْسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلا لِحَيَاتِهِ ، وَلَكِنَّهُمَا آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى الصَّلاةِ " . وَهَذَا قَوْلُ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : وَزَادَ فِيهِ هِشَامٌ : " إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَتَصَدَّقُوا ، وَصَلُّوا "
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that during the blessed era of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), there was a solar eclipse, so the Prophet (peace be upon him) led the people in prayer, then narrated the complete hadith. At the end, these words are narrated: Then when the Prophet (peace be upon him) finished the prayer, he said: "Indeed, the sun and the moon do not eclipse due to the death or life of any person, but both are two signs among the signs of Allah. Therefore, when you see an eclipse, hasten towards prayer." Imam Zuhri says that in this, Hisham has added: "When you see an eclipse, give charity and perform prayer."
