Partial Solar Eclipse - Thursday 10 June 2021

There will be a partial solar eclipse on Thursday 10 June 2021. The eclipse will be visible in most of Europe.

Eclipse Timings for your location can be found on timeanddate.com

For London, the eclipse times are as follows

10.08am. Partial eclipse starts
11.13 am. Maximum eclipse
12.22pm Eclipse ends.

It is Wajib to pray Salatul Aayat. The method of praying Salatul Aayat is as follows:
Ruling 1486. Ṣalāt al-āyāt consists of two rakʿahs, and in each rakʿah there are five rukūʿs. The method of performing the prayer is as follows: after one has made the intention [of performing the prayer], he says takbīr, recites one Sūrat al-Ḥamd and one other complete surah, goes into rukūʿ, and then raises his head from rukūʿ; then, he again recites one Sūrat al-Ḥamd and one other complete surah, goes into rukūʿ again, and so on until he has done this a total of five times. After getting up from the fifth rukūʿ, he performs two sajdahs, stands up, and proceeds to perform the second rakʿah in the same way as the first; he then says tashahhud and the salām of the prayer.

Ruling 1487. [A shorter method of performing ṣalāt al-āyāt is as follows:] after one has made the intention [of performing the prayer], he says takbīr and recites Sūrat al-Ḥamd; then, he can divide the verses of the other surah into five parts and recite one verse or more, or even less, provided that – based on obligatory precaution – it is a complete sentence. He must start from the beginning of the surah and must not suffice with reciting bismillāh [on its own and count that as one verse]. Then, he goes into rukūʿ, raises his head, and without reciting Sūrat al-Ḥamd he recites the second part of the other surah. He then goes into rukūʿ again, and so on until he completes the other surah before he goes into the fifth rukūʿ. For example, if the other surah is Sūrat al-Falaq,(1) he first says:

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ‏. قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ

bismil lāhir raḥmānir raḥīm. qul aʿūdhu birabbil falaq

In the Name of Allah, the All-Beneficent, the Ever-Merciful. Say, ‘I seek the protection of the Lord of the daybreak.

…and goes into rukūʿ [for the first time]; he then stands up and says:

مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خـَـلَقَ

min sharri mā khalaq

from the evil of what He has created,

…and goes into rukūʿ again [for the second time]; he then stands up and says:

وَ مِنْ شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ

wa min sharri ghāsiqin idhā waqab

and from the evil of the dark night when it settles,

…and goes into rukūʿ again [for the third time]; he then stands up and says:

وَ مِنْ شَرِّ النَّـفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ

wa min sharrin naffāthāti fil ʿuqad

and from the evil of the witches who blow on knots,

…and goes into rukūʿ again [for the fourth time]; he then stands up and says:

وَ مِنْ شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ

wa min sharri ḥāsidin idhā ḥasad

and from the evil of the envious one when he envies.’

…and goes into rukūʿ for the fifth time. He then stands up, performs two sajdahs, and then proceeds to perform the second rakʿah in the same way as the first. And after the second sajdah [of the second rakʿah], he says tashahhud and the salām of the prayer. Furthermore, it is permitted for one to divide the surah into less than five parts, but whenever he completes the surah, it is necessary that he recites Sūrat al-Ḥamd before performing the next rukūʿ.
