The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh. On next Monday, at six and a quarter in the morning, the moon will be eclipsed. Is the prayer performed or not?
The Shaykh : And who will observe it at six o'clock?
The questioner : It will be observed in all regions of the Kingdom.
The Shaykh : It is not observed, yes?
The questioner : It is full in the middle of the month and appears at the beginning of the morning.
The Shaykh : No, no, it may start at six o'clock.
The questioner : It starts at six o'clock.
The Shaykh : But it is not visible until it sets. Then the scholars said that if it is eclipsed during the day, the prayer is not performed because its dominion has passed, and people do not fear it when it is during the day, because whether it is eclipsed or not, its light will not appear.
