Question

Plz tell us what is the shara'ee status of Moon and Solar eclipse? and is there any negative or positive effect to a pregnant woman?

Answer

An eclipse is a sign from Allah Ta'ala and an indication to us of the great power of Allah. We should resort to making taubah and asking for forgiveness for our many sins.

It is superstition to think that an eclipse has a detrimental effect on pregnant women.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
