Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: The sun was eclipsed, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed with the people along with him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) stood for a long time, about as long as the recitation of Surah al-Baqarah; and in the narration of Abu Mus'ab it says that he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited about the like of Surah al-Baqarah. Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) says: This is evidence that he did not hear his (peace and blessings be upon him) recitation; had he heard it, he would not have estimated it by something else.
