سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ لَمَّا قُبِضَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) جَرَتْ فِيهِ ثَلَاثُ سُنَنٍ أَمَّا وَاحِدَةٌ فَإِنَّهُ لَمَّا مَاتَ انْكَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ انْكَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ لِفَقْدِ ابْنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فَصَعِدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَ الْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ تَجْرِيَانِ بِأَمْرِهِ مُطِيعَانِ لَهُ لَا تَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَ لَا لِحَيَاتِهِ فَإِذَا انْكَسَفَتَا أَوْ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْهُمَا فَصَلُّوا ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ صَلَاةَ الْكُسُوفِ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Amro Bin Usman, from Ali Bin Abdullah who said, ‘I heard Abu Al-Hassan Musa<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘When Ibrahim<sup>as</sup>, the son<sup>as</sup> of Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> passed away, three Sunnahs flowed regarding it. As for one, so when he<sup>as</sup> passed away, the sun was eclipsed. So the people said, ‘The sun eclipsed due to the loss of the son<sup>as</sup> of Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>’. So Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> ascended the Pulpit, and he<sup>saww</sup> Praised Allah<sup>azwj</sup> and Lauded upon Him<sup>azwj</sup>, then said: ‘O you people! The sun and the moon are two signs from the signs of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, both flowing by His<sup>azwj</sup> Command, Obedient to Him<sup>azwj</sup>. They do not get eclipsed for the death of anyone, nor for his life. So whenever they both get eclipsed, or one of the two, so pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>’. Then he<sup>saww</sup> descended and prayed <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> with the people, a <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> of the eclipse’.
