Amr b. al-'As reported:
When the sun eclipsed during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), they (the people) were called to congregational prayers. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) observed two ruku's in one rak'ah. He then stood and observed two ruku's in (the second) rak'ah. The sun then became bright, and 'A'isha said; Never did I observe, ruku' and prostration longer than this (ruku' and prostration).
