وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ خَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالنَّاسُ مَعَهُ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلاً نَحْوًا مِنْ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ - قَالَ - ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلاً ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلاً وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلاً وَهُوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ قَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلاً وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلاً وَهُوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلاً وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلاً وَهُو دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَقَدْ تَجَلَّتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ " إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ لاَ يَخْسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلاَ لِحَيَاتِهِ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ " . قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَيْنَاكَ تَنَاوَلْتَ شَيْئًا فِي مَقَامِكَ هَذَا ثُمَّ رَأَيْنَاكَ تَكَعْكَعْتَ . فَقَالَ " إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْجَنَّةَ فَتَنَاوَلْتُ مِنْهَا عُنْقُودًا وَلَوْ أَخَذْتُهُ لأَكَلْتُمْ مِنْهُ مَا بَقِيَتِ الدُّنْيَا وَرَأَيْتُ النَّارَ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ مَنْظَرًا قَطُّ أَفْظَعَ وَرَأَيْتُ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِهَا النِّسَاءَ " . قَالُوا لِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ " لِكُفْرِهِنَّ " . قِيلَ أَيَكْفُرْنَ بِاللَّهِ . قَالَ " وَيَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ وَيَكْفُرْنَ الإِحْسَانَ لَوْ أَحْسَنْتَ إِلَى إِحْدَاهُنَّ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ ثُمَّ رَأَتْ مِنْكَ شَيْئًا قَالَتْ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ " .


Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibnYasar that Abdullah ibn Abbas said, "There was an eclipse of the sunand the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,prayed, and the people prayed with him. He stood for a long time,nearly as long as (it takes to recite) Surat al-Baqara (Sura 2), andthen went into ruku for a long time. Then he rose and stood for a longtime, though less than the first time.Then he went into ruku for along time, though less than the first time. Then he went down intosajda. Then he stood for a long time, though less than the first time.Then he went into ruku for a long time, though less than the firsttime. Then he rose and stood for a long time, though less than thefirsttime. Then he went into ruku for a long time, though less thanthe first time. Then he went down into sajda, and by the time he hadfinished the sun had appeared. Then he said, 'The sun and the moon aretwo of Allah's signs. They do not eclipse for anyone's death nor foranyone's life. When you see an eclipse, remember Allah.' They said,'Messenger of Allah, we saw you reach out for something while you werestanding here and then we saw you withdraw.' He said, 'I saw theGarden and I reached out for a bunch of grapes from it, and if I hadtaken it you would have been able to eat from it for as long as thisworld lasted. Then I saw the Fire - and I have never seen anythingmore hideous than what I saw today - and I saw that most of itspeople were women.' They said, 'Why, Messenger of Allah?' He said,'Because of their ungratefulness (kufr).' Someone said, 'Are theyungrateful toAllah?' He said, 'They are ungrateful to their husbandsand they are ungrateful for good behaviour (towards them) . Even ifyou were to behave well towards one of them for a whole lifetime andthen she were to see you do something (that she did not like) shewould say that she had never seen anything good from you.'
