Arab Weather - Dr. Abdullah Al-Misnad, a professor of climate at Qassim University (formerly), issued a special report on the expected solar eclipse on Tuesday, October 25, Dr. said. Abdullah Al-Misnad, that the phenomenon of a solar eclipse occurs when the Earth, the moon and the sun are on the same line, specifically when the moon is between the earth and the sun, and this does not happen except at the end of the lunar month, i.e. the time of the new moon (the secret of the moon), when the moon is in the ascending node or The descending (the point of intersection of the moon’s orbit with the Earth’s orbit around the sun), and the stage that follows the new moon or eclipse stage by a few hours, is the stage of the birth of the new crescent (the crescent of the first month). And on Wednesday, the first of the month of Rabi’ al-Thani. ? <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/40a68d39-bf27-4ec8-b8f6-ad7a31c867b7_0.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 992px;" /> With God’s permission, a partial solar eclipse will be seen in Saudi Arabia, the Gulf, Iraq, the Levant, Egypt, Sudan, Central Asia and Europe, and that will be at noon on Tuesday, 29 Rabi’ al-Awwal (25 October), as the body of the moon will obscure part of the sun’s disk over the Saudi sky by a rate ranging between 15% in the extreme south. The western Saudi and 41% in the far northeast (see the attached table), and because the moon revolves around the Earth from west to east, the eclipse always begins from the eastern side of the moon, and for the same reason, the eclipse begins from the western side of the sun, and the first thing that begins the next eclipse on Earth is in The island of Iceland ends east of the Arabian Sea. <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/WhatsApp%20Image%202022-10-24%20at%201.30.52%20PM%20%281%29.jpeg" style="width: 1118px; height: 1200px;" /> The phenomenon of eclipses cannot come alone. Rather, the All-Knowing Creator has decreed that a lunar eclipse will come about two weeks before or after the eclipse, and therefore the next eclipse will be followed by a partial lunar eclipse on Rabi’ al-Akhir 14 (November 8) that is not seen in the Arab world. And the Creator, the Mighty and Sublime, wanted the moon’s orbit to be inclined from the Earth’s orbit by 5 degrees and 8 minutes, so they intersect at two points called the ascending node and the descending node. We created the heavens and the earth and what is between them for players.” Will the eclipse prayer be held? Yes ... but at different times, as the lunar eclipse prayer is the only prayer in Sharia that is performed simultaneously in the nocturnal hemisphere, while the solar eclipse prayer has multiple timings; Because the shadow of the moon falling on the earth is limited in space, and it moves from west to east - in general - and at the speed of the moon’s rotation around the earth, so watching the eclipse varies from one geographical location to another, and it is expected that the call to prayer of the eclipse will be called about 10 minutes after the eclipse begins, following لسنة المصطفى صلى الله عليه وسلم حيث قال"إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ يُخَوِّفُ اللَّهُ بِهِمَا عِبَادَهُ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ مِنْ النَّاسِ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا فَصَلُّوا وَادْعُوا اللَّهَ حَتَّى يُكْشَفَ مَا بِكُمْ" رواه مسلم. The eclipse prayer will begin in the northern regions before the central regions, and the last before the southern regions, and below you are seven things that the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, commanded at the time of the eclipse, all of which are fixed in Sahih al-Bukhari, which are: 1 Prayer. 2 supplication. 3 Asking forgiveness. 4 zoom. 5 male. 6 charity. 7 manumission. Is there an inherent danger when watching the eclipse with the naked eye? Looking at the sun is very dangerous for the retina of the eye, whether the sun is eclipsed or not. Therefore, I urge everyone to avoid looking at the sun directly, or even using sunglasses or burning films and the like; Due to the danger of visible and direct solar rays on the eye, which may cause temporary blindness, or permanent eye damage, if you do, you should consult the doctor immediately when: blurred vision, wavy or distorted vision, difficulty distinguishing colors, headache in the head, sensitivity to light , Pain in the eyes, and it is noteworthy that there are special glasses to follow the eclipse called Eclipsers Glasses, may God protect everyone. Is it possible to know the past and future eclipses and eclipses? Knowing the time of the past and coming eclipses and eclipses with finite mathematical accuracy that necessarily reflects the accuracy of God’s creation who perfected everything, the Mighty and Sublime. ". A solar eclipse occurs in one year between two and five eclipses on the level of the globe, and the occurrence of five eclipses of the sun in one year is rare and rare, and the last year in which five eclipses occurred was in 1935 AD, and it will be repeated in 2206 AD. And God is All-Knowing and Wise. The number of eclipses that have occurred and will occur during the current century (21) worldwide is 224, including 77 partial solar eclipses, 72 annular solar eclipses, 68 total solar eclipses, and seven hybrid (mixed) solar eclipses, and there are 82 years in which there are two eclipses. And 12 years in which there are three eclipses, and six years in which there are four eclipses, and the longest total eclipse during the current century will be 6 minutes and 39 seconds in length, and the shortest is 1 minute and 6 seconds. Usually the length of the total eclipse period ranges from two minutes to approximately 7 minutes, and the reason for this is that the length of the diameter of the moon’s shadow spot on Earth is about 270 km, and because the speed of movement of the moon’s shadow on Earth is about 2,100 km per hour; The distance of 270 km is covered in a period of about 7 minutes (and We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them except with truth). According to astronomical mathematical calculations starting from 1999 years until the year 3000 AD (that is, during a time period of 5000 years), the longest annular eclipse was 12 minutes and 23 seconds, and it occurred in 150 AD, i.e. 1872 years ago in the Pacific Ocean, and the longest total eclipse was 7 minutes and 29 seconds It will fall in the year 2186 AD, i.e. after 164 years, and it will be seen in the Atlantic Ocean and South America, “You will not find the Sunnah of God to be changed, and you will not find the Sunnah of God to be changed.” Among the cosmic facts and divine Sunnahs is that God Almighty decreed that a total solar eclipse occur once every 18 months worldwide, and it should be noted that two places on the globe where total eclipses are not seen at all, and that is at the poles, and only partial ones are seen, and the total eclipse does not exceed seven in length. Minutes and 30 seconds, and the width of the moon’s shadow on Earth during the total eclipse is only 270 km, and the length of the cone of the moon’s shadow is about 380,000 km (and we do not send signs except for fear). <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/WhatsApp%20Image%202022-10-24%20at%201.30.57%20PM%20%281%29.jpeg" style="width: 900px; height: 673px;" /> When will he witness a total eclipse in the Kingdom? God willing, the Saudis will witness a scary and rare total solar eclipse. Where the Saudis will see in broad daylight the stars and planets in the year 2027 AD, followed by another total eclipse in 2034 AD and the interval between them is only six years. Whoever witnesses a (total) eclipse in a particular city will not see it again in the same city until after 375 years have passed (on average).. This and God knows best. <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/WhatsApp%20Image%202022-10-24%20at%201.30.59%20PM%20%281%29.jpeg" style="width: 900px; height: 673px;" />
