Some people say that an eclipse of the moon signifies punishment for the moon.

Question

Some people say that an eclipse of the moon signifies punishment for the moon. Is this true?

Answer

All the funny stories you hear about eclipses are baseless superstition. An eclipse is a sign of Allah Ta'ala. Two raka'ts with long Surahs should be performed during an eclipse.
