Many people think that the occurrence of solar eclipses and lunar eclipses is an ordinary natural phenomenon, but for those who feel subservient to the majesty of the Creator, Allah swt. consider the eclipse to be an important event that clearly shows that there is a supreme power beyond human capabilities. Eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon that occurs when a celestial body covers another celestial body, a lunar eclipse occurs because part or all of the moon's cross section is covered by the Earth's shadow. Meanwhile, a solar eclipse occurs because the position of the moon is between the earth and the sun so that it covers part or all of the rays from the sun, in the event of an eclipse according to KH. Ahmad Izzuddin, namely the estimation of when the eclipse will occur can be taken from one of the books, al-Qawaid al-Falakiyah by Shaykh Abdul Fatah al-Thuty, the sun and the moon by reckoning ustadz A.
