In the hadith, it is stated that the solar and lunar eclipses are two signs by which Allah frightens His servants. What is meant by "frightening" here?

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: It came in the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the solar and lunar eclipses are two signs by which Allah frightens His servants. He asks: What is meant by "frightening" here? And are the solar and lunar eclipses

The Shaykh:
the occurrence of the Hour? When the Hour occurs, the sun and the moon will be revealed. Who knows when the Hour will occur? No one knows. The Messenger feared that it might be the Hour. Because he (peace and blessings be upon him) does not know the unseen and does not know when the Hour will occur. Yes.

The questioner:
Then he says, may Allah preserve you: Are the solar and lunar eclipses caused by sins?

The Shaykh:
The cause. Sins. What is the cause? Sins. There is no doubt that we are sinners and that we fall short. The prayer for the eclipse is a great act of worship that we perform, and no one is free from sins.
