Eclipse-watching looks like in Kuala Lumpur at 8:30am on 9 March 2016
Eclipses are signs from Allah by means of which Allah makes His slaves afraid. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And We sent not the signs except to warn, and to make them afraid (of destruction)” [al-Israa’ 17:39]
8:30am Malaysia local time
When the new moon closely aligns with one of its nodes, the moon’s dark umbral shadow falls on Earth, presenting a total eclipse of the sun. Adapted from EarthSky
“It is He Who made the sun a shining thing and the moon as a light and measured out for it stages that you might know the number of years and the reckoning. Allaah did not create this but in truth. He explains the Ayaat in detail for people who have knowledge.” [Yoonus 10:5]
“And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Prostrate yourselves not to the sun” nor to the moon, but prostrate yourselves to Allaah Who created them, if you (really) worship Him” (Fussilat 41:37)
Salaat al-Kusoof is Sunnah mu’akkadah (a confirmed Sunnah) according to the consensus of the scholars. The daleel (evidence) for this is the Sunnah reported from the Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
Future transport
During the time this verse was revealed, mankind had no idea that in the future things other than animals could be used for transportation. That is why Allah states in this verse: He has created (other) things of which you have no knowledge. In fact, the history shows that mankind has continuously discovered new methods of transportation. At any given point of time, a few means of transportation were always unknown. This verse thus is true for all generations of mankind. (The Quran, 16:8)
Surat An-Nahl (The Bee) 16:8
He created the horses, mules and donkeys for you to ride and [as] adornment. And He creates that which you do not know.
