Al-Azhar Mosque Calls Muslims to Pray During Lunar Eclipse
Al-Azhar Mosque announced that the eclipse prayer will be held tomorrow after the Fajr prayer on Friday, 15 Rabi’ al-Awwal 1448 AH. This is to remind Muslims of the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the manifestations of God's power. The announcement explained that a lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes through the Earth's shadow. The eclipse prayer is a confirmed Sunnah consisting of two rak'ahs, which include standing (qiyam), recitations, bowing, and two prostrations in each rak'ah, accompanied by a khutbah that emphasizes God's greatness and encourages supplication and repentance. Al-Azhar called on Muslims to take advantage of this phenomenon by praying and contemplating God's power, citing the Prophet’s ﷺ hadiths that clarify that an eclipse is a sign from God and not linked to the death or life of any individual.
