Note: The Eclipse Prayer

๐Ÿ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐Ÿ’Œ Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala knows best. According to some reports Inn-sha-Allah on Saturday June 6 there may be a lunar eclipse. It is Sunnah to pray two Rak'ahs of Salat Al-Kusoof (solar eclipse) / Al-Khusoof (lunar eclipse) reciting the Surahs in an audible voice when an eclipse is taking place. 
Research on YouTube for the keywords "lunar eclipse 2020" or "June eclipse 2020" to watch some live broadcasts of the eclipse, and read more on how to perform the eclipse prayer.
You can Inn-sha-Allah continue fasting the six days of Shawwal or start with the 13th (which is tomorrow Friday), 14th (Saturday June 6) and 15th (Sunday June 7) of every month. What is discouraged is to fast on a Friday by itself without fasting a day before or after.
Include the Muslim Ummah in your Du'as.
๐Ÿ“– Al-Mughira ibn Shu’ba RadhiAllahu 'anhu narated: On the day the Prophet’s son Ibrahim died, the sun eclipsed and the people said the eclipse was because of the death of Ibrahim. The Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “The sun and the moon are two signs among the signs of Allah and they do not eclipse because of the death or birth of any person. When you see them, call upon Allah and pray until the eclipse is clear.”
