Explaining the Manner of the Eclipse Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q490: The questioner asks: What is the manner of the eclipse prayer?
A490: The manner of the eclipse prayer is that one says the takbir of entering prayer, then recites al-Fatihah, then recites a long surah, such as al-Baqarah. Then he bows in a long ruku', approximately the length of his standing. Then he raises his head and says, "Allah hears the one who praises Him," and recites al-Fatihah and a long surah, though shorter than the first. Then he bows in a long ruku', then raises his head and says, "Our Lord, and to You is the praise." Then he stands upright, then says takbir, and prostrates two prostrations. Then he stands up and prays the second unit like the first.
