Is the Sun Eclipse Prayer to be recited in a low voice or aloud, according to the Sunnah?
Scholars have differed regarding audible recitation in the eclipse prayer. Abu Hanifa, the Malikis, and the Shafi'is held that it should not be recited audibly, while Ahmad and Abu Yusuf maintained that it should be recited audibly, which is also a narration from Malik.
The correct view is that it is sunnah to recite audibly, due to its establishment from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in the hadith of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, as narrated in Bukhari and elsewhere. The affirmation of audible recitation in Aisha's hadith takes precedence over its negation in Ibn Abbas's hadith, and an affirming narration takes precedence over a negating one.
