Is the eclipse a natural phenomenon?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Shaykh Salih pointed to a fact that you mentioned at the beginning of your speech (may Allah preserve you and protect you), which is that some people say that the eclipse is a natural phenomenon.

Answer:
This is a false statement. It is what Allah (Mighty and Majestic) has decreed; it is not a natural thing. It is not attributed to nature, but rather to the decree of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). It is attributed to Allah that He is the One who decreed it, created it, and brought it into existence. Nothing is attributed to nature, neither the eclipse nor anything else. Yes.
