  1. I saw ir,it was biiiiig on the EAST WHERE THE SUN RISES FROM BUT NOT V
    RED. around 1943Hrs in 🇰🇪.
    Did not.last long though

  2. It was said in the video that creatures change their behavior during a solar eclipse, as well as Muslims, rushing to pray in fear, asking God (ALLAH) the Creator to return to them the sunlight – this great blessing without which life stops or becomes very difficult – once again. God is the creator of all beings.

    God says in Quraan
    Say -O messenger: “Have you ever considered [this]: If God had willed that there should always be night about you, without break, until the Day of Resurrection – is there any deity other than God that could bring you light? Will you not, then, listen [to the truth]?”

  3. Funfact : Ln April 8th 2024 there will be a solor eclipse in northamerica and i live like in the line of totality so my 2nd total eclipse 😀 im excited

  4. So there is no dark side of the moon then as the suns rays we should see would light up the part of the moon that normally faces outer space.

  5. 400 = 40 x 10 (both numbers related to the Bible)

    It's very curious that we are living in a time when total eclipses are possible because the Moon hasn't moved away too much…
