Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported:The sun eclipsed on one extremely hot day during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prayed along with his Companions. He prolonged his qiyam (standing posture in prayer) till they (his Companions) began to fall down. He then observed a long ruku'. He raised his head (and stood up for long) and then observed a long ruku'. He then raised (his head and stood up) for a long time and then made two prostrations. He then stood up and did like this and thus he observed four ruku's and four prostrations (in two rak'ahs) and then said: All these things were brought to me in which you will be made to enter. Paradise was brought to me till (I was so close to it) that if I (had intended) to pluck a bunch (of grapes) out of it. I would have got it, or he (the Holy Prophet) said: I intended to get a bunch (out of that) but my hand could not reach it. Hell was also brought to me and I saw in it a woman belonging to the tribe of Israel who was tormented for a cat whom she had tied, but did not give it food nor set it free to eat the creatures of the earth; and I saw Abu Thumama 'Amr b. Malik who was dragging his intestines in Hell. They (the Arabs) used to say that the sun and the moon do not eclipse but on the death of some great person; but (in reality) both these (the sun and the moon) are among the signs of Allah which are shown to you; so when there is an eclipse, observe prayer till it (the sun or the moon) brightens. This hadith has been narrated by Hisham with the same chain of transmitters except this" I saw a dark woman with a tail stature and loud voice," but he made no mention of" from among Bani Israel

وحدثني يعقوب بن ابراهيم الدورقي، حدثنا اسماعيل ابن علية، عن هشام الدستوايي، قال حدثنا ابو الزبير، عن جابر بن عبد الله، قال كسفت الشمس على عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في يوم شديد الحر فصلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم باصحابه فاطال القيام حتى جعلوا يخرون ثم ركع فاطال ثم رفع فاطال ثم ركع فاطال ثم رفع فاطال ثم سجد سجدتين ثم قام فصنع نحوا من ذاك فكانت اربع ركعات واربع سجدات ثم قال " انه عرض على كل شىء تولجونه فعرضت على الجنة حتى لو تناولت منها قطفا اخذته - او قال تناولت منها قطفا - فقصرت يدي عنه وعرضت على النار فرايت فيها امراة من بني اسراييل تعذب في هرة لها ربطتها فلم تطعمها ولم تدعها تاكل من خشاش الارض ورايت ابا ثمامة عمرو بن مالك يجر قصبه في النار . وانهم كانوا يقولون ان الشمس والقمر لا يخسفان الا لموت عظيم وانهما ايتان من ايات الله يريكموهما فاذا خسفا فصلوا حتى تنجلي " . وحدثنيه ابو غسان المسمعي، حدثنا عبد الملك بن الصباح، عن هشام، بهذا الاسناد مثله الا انه قال " ورايت في النار امراة حميرية سوداء طويلة " . ولم يقل " من بني اسراييل
