SUMMARY:Congregational Prayer During Lunar Eclipse | Hafiz Rehan Chishty
DESCRIPTION:Help us revive a Sunnah by joining us after Taraweeh ends at 11 p.m. tonight for worship and the congregational lunar eclipse prayer (Salat al-Kusoof) led by Hafiz Rehan Chishty. The Prophet (PBUH) would engage in worship in the masjid during this unique event. \n\n\n\nAccording to NASA\, though the solar eclipse will begin at about 9 p.m. to 3 a.m.\, we will perform the congregational four cycles of Salat al-Kusoof; the maximum eclipse is anticipated at 11:26 p.m. to 12:31 a.m. \n\n\n\nThursday\, March 13 | ~11 p.m. to 12 a.m. | Prayer Hall | Join in-person or watch live at mcceastbay.org/live \n\n\n\nQuestions? events@mcceastbay.org \n\n\n\nFor how to perform this prayer\, see here. \n\n– Past Eclipse prayers at MCC: HTTP://mcceastbay.org/eclipse\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Pleasanton\, the eclipse will start at 9 p.m.\, with the maximum eclipse anticipated at 11:26 p.m. to 12:31 a.m. It will be over by 3 a.m. \n\n\n\nWhen the sun was eclipsed at the time of the Messenger of Allah\, he rushed nervously to the mosque\, dragging his cloak behind him and leading the people in prayer. \n\n\n\nHe told them that the eclipse was one of the signs of Allah\, with which Allah makes His slaves afraid\, and that it may be the cause of punishment coming upon the people. \n\n\n\nHe commanded them to do that which could prevent the punishment\, so he commanded them to pray when an eclipse happens and to make du’aa’\, seek His forgiveness\, give charity\, free slaves\, and do other righteous deeds so that the punishment would go away and not befall the people. \n\n\n\n“The sun and moon are two signs of Allah(ﷻ)\, and they do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of anyone. If you see that\, then pray until it (the eclipse) is over.” – Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) \n\n\n\nAccording to another hadeeth: “Call on Allah and pray until [the eclipse] is over.” \n\n\n\nSalat Al-Kusuf is a recommended Sunnah (Sunnah Muakkada). It is better to perform in the congregation\, but it can also be done individually. In Salatul Kusuf\, there is no athan or iqama. It is two rakats. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, it can be one long prayer until the eclipse is finished\, or it can be done in multiple prayers throughout the eclipse. \n\n\n\nSteps of Salatul Kusuf – The Solar Eclipse Prayer: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Takbeerat Al-Ihram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. Recite Fatiha and long surah\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. First Extended Ruku\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. Stand up from Ruku – Read Fatiha (optional) followed by long surah\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Second Extended Ruku\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. Stand up from Ruku\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7. Two Extended Sujoods\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8. Stand up for 2nd Rakat and Repeat Steps 1-7\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9. Salaam on both sides. If the eclipse is not finished\, you may do an additional two rakats or more in the same format until it is complete.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0DbCbpR4Vg\n\nSource: https://science.nasa.gov/solar-system/moon/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-march-2025-total-lunar-eclipse/\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
