حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَیْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ یَسَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ انْخَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله علیه وسلم، فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله علیه وسلم، فَقَامَ قِیَامًا طَوِیلاً نَحْوًا مِنْ قِرَاءَةِ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِیلاً، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِیَامًا طَوِیلاً، وَهْوَ دُونَ الْقِیَامِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِیلاً، وَهْوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ، ثُمَّ قَامَ قِیَامًا طَوِیلاً وَهْوَ دُونَ الْقِیَامِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِیلاً، وَهْوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِیَامًا طَوِیلاً، وَهْوَ دُونَ الْقِیَامِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِیلاً، وَهْوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَقَدْ تَجَلَّتِ الشَّمْسُ، فَقَالَ صلى الله علیه وسلم ‏"‏ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آیَتَانِ مِنْ آیَاتِ اللَّهِ، لاَ یَخْسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلاَ لِحَیَاتِهِ، فَإِذَا رَأَیْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، رَأَیْنَاكَ تَنَاوَلْتَ شَیْئًا فِی مَقَامِكَ، ثُمَّ رَأَیْنَاكَ كَعْكَعْتَ‏.‏ قَالَ صلى الله علیه وسلم ‏"‏ إِنِّی رَأَیْتُ الْجَنَّةَ، فَتَنَاوَلْتُ عُنْقُودًا، وَلَوْ أَصَبْتُهُ لأَكَلْتُمْ مِنْهُ مَا بَقِیَتِ الدُّنْیَا، وَأُرِیتُ النَّارَ، فَلَمْ أَرَ مَنْظَرًا كَالْیَوْمِ قَطُّ أَفْظَعَ، وَرَأَیْتُ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِهَا النِّسَاءَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا بِمَ یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ بِكُفْرِهِنَّ ‏"‏‏.‏ قِیلَ یَكْفُرْنَ بِاللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ یَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِیرَ، وَیَكْفُرْنَ الإِحْسَانَ، لَوْ أَحْسَنْتَ إِلَى إِحْدَاهُنَّ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ، ثُمَّ رَأَتْ مِنْكَ شَیْئًا قَالَتْ مَا رَأَیْتُ مِنْكَ خَیْرًا قَطُّ ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Abbas:

The sun eclipsed in the lifetime of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) . Allah's Messenger offered the eclipse prayer and stood for a long period equal to the period in which one could recite Surat-al-Baqara. Then he bowed for a long time and then stood up for a long period which was shorter than that of the first standing, then bowed again for a long time but for a shorter period than the first; then he prostrated twice and then stood up for a long period which was shorter than that of the first standing; then he bowed for a long time which was shorter than the previous one, and then he raised his head and stood up for a long period which was shorter than the first standing, then he bowed for a long time which was shorter than the first bowing, and then prostrated (twice) and finished the prayer. By then, the sun (eclipse) had cleared. The Prophet then said, "The sun and the moon are two of the signs of Allah. They eclipse neither because of the death of somebody nor because of his life (i.e. birth). So when you see them, remember Allah." The people say, "O Allah's Messenger ! We saw you taking something from your place and then we saw you retreating." The Prophet replied, "I saw Paradise and stretched my hands towards a bunch (of its fruits) and had I taken it, you would have eaten from it as long as the world remains. I also saw the Hell-fire and I had never seen such a horrible sight. I saw that most of the inhabitants were women." The people asked, "O Allah's Messenger ! Why is it so?" The Prophet replied, "Because of their ungratefulness." It was asked whether they are ungrateful to Allah. The Prophet said, "They are ungrateful to their companions of life (husbands) and ungrateful to good deeds. If you are benevolent to one of them throughout the life and if she sees anything (undesirable) in you, she will say, 'I have never had any good from you.' "
