What is the ruling if the eclipse prayer ends while the eclipse is still ongoing?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : If the prayer has ended and the eclipse is still ongoing, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan an-Nasa'i 1502Sahih (Darussalam) So what should we do? Some scholars said that the prayer is repeated a second time. Other scholars said it is not repeated, but one prays a regular prayer of two rak'ahs with one bowing. Other scholars said that no prayer is performed, and one should occupy oneself with supplication and remembrance of Allah until the eclipse clears. The most likely view, and Allah knows best, is that you either pray or you occupy yourself with supplication and remembrance. As for repeating the first prayer, the opinion supporting this is weak. This concludes what we intended to discuss on this topic. We ask Allah the Exalted to accept from us and from you, and to bring us and you back to nights like these while we are enjoying faith, righteous deeds, health, and safety.
