Muhammad ibn Bashshar told us: Yahya ibn Said told us, from Sufyan, from Habib ibn Abi Thabit, from Tawus, from Ibn Abbas, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he prayed during a solar eclipse: he recited, bowed, recited, bowed, recited, and bowed three times, then prostrated twice. He did the same in the other unit. Reports on this subject are also related from Ali, Aishah, Abdullah ibn Amr, al-Numan ibn Bashir, al-Mughirah ibn Shubah, Abu Masud, Abu Bakrah, Samurah, Abu Musa al-Ashari, Ibn Masud, Asma bint Abi Bakr al-Siddiq, Ibn Umar, Qabisah al-Hilali, Jabir ibn Abdullah, Abd al-Rahman ibn Samurah, and Ubayy ibn Kab. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Ibn Abbas is hasan sahih. It is also narrated from Ibn Abbas that the Prophet prayed during an eclipse with four bowings and four prostrations. This is the view of al-Shafii, Ahmad, and Ishaq. Scholars differed about recitation in the eclipse prayer. Some held that recitation should be silent during a daytime eclipse; others held that it should be aloud, as in the Eid and Friday prayers. Malik, Ahmad, and Ishaq held that it should be aloud, while al-Shafii said it should not. Both forms of prayer are soundly narrated from the Prophet: he prayed with four bowings and four prostrations, and it is also soundly narrated that he prayed with six bowings and four prostrations. Scholars consider both permissible according to the length of the eclipse: if it lasts long, six bowings with four prostrations are permissible; if one prays with four bowings and four prostrations while lengthening the recitation, that too is permissible. Our scholars hold that the eclipse prayer for both solar and lunar eclipses should be performed in congregation.
