Hadith on Kusuf: The Prophet prays during an eclipse

Aisha reported: The sun eclipsed in the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, so he sent a caller to announce a congregational prayer. They gathered and arrived, then they exalted Allah and prayed four cycles, two by two, with four prostrations.
