The Eclipse Prayer in the Times of Prohibition

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is the eclipse prayer performed if it falls in a time when prayer is prohibited?

Answer:
Yes, according to the correct and stronger position, because the times of prohibition are specific to certain causes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said generally: "When you see the sun or moon eclipse, that is the eclipse,"
then pray and supplicate until it removed it from you.فصلوا وادعوا حتى ينكشف ما بكم
Sunan an-Nasa'i 1502Sahih (Darussalam)
This is a general ruling for all times. Yes.
