The Prayer for Eclipses, Earthquakes, Winds, and Oppression and Their Causes

وَ سَأَلَ عَبْدُ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلصَّادِقَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرِّيحِ وَ اَلظُّلْمَةِ تَكُونُ فِي اَلسَّمَاءِ وَ اَلْكُسُوفِ فَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «صَلاَتُهُمَا سَوَاءٌ.
Abdul-Rahman ibn Abi Abdullah asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام about windstorms, darkness in the sky, and eclipses. Imam عليه السلام replied: "The prayer for all of them is the same”.
