The number of times the eclipse prayer was performed in the time of the Prophet

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Did the eclipse prayer occur several times in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
No, it happened only once. The sun was eclipsed in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so he prayed the eclipse prayer with them. As for the moon, no lunar eclipse occurred in his time (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
