(a) Ata' bin Yasar narrates from Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): The sun was eclipsed in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) led the people in prayer and stood for a long time, about as long as the recitation of Surah al-Baqarah. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed a long bowing, then he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head from the bowing. Then he stood for a long time, but somewhat less than the first standing. Then he performed a long bowing, but somewhat less than the first bowing. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrated. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) stood for a long time, but it was somewhat less than the first standing. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed a long bowing, but it was less than the first bowing. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head from the bowing and stood for a long time, but it was less than the first standing. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed a long bowing, but it was less than the first bowing. Then he prostrated. Then he finished the prayer, and the eclipse had ended. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The sun and the moon are among the signs of Allah. They do not lose their light for anyone's death or life. When you see this, remember Allah abundantly." The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: O Messenger of Allah! We saw you reaching for something in this place of yours, then we saw you stepping backwards. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I was shown Paradise. I reached out to take a bunch of grapes; had I taken it, you would have eaten from it as long as the world remains. And I was also shown Hell; I have never seen a more terrifying sight than it until today. And I saw that most of its inhabitants were women." They said: O Messenger of Allah! Why? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Because of their ingratitude." It was asked: Are they ungrateful to Allah? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are ungrateful to their husbands and ungrateful for kindness. If you were to treat one of them well for a lifetime, and then she saw some small shortcoming from you, she would at once say: I have never seen any good from you."
(b) In the hadith of al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) it says: The sun lost its light, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the people in prayer; but he did not mention the words 'more terrifying than it.'
