Question:
During solar or lunar eclipse is pregnant women not allowed to go outside. They say it has bad effect on the baby?
Answer:
Waalaykumussalam,
They are allowed to go to the mosque to join the congregational sunna eclipse prayer which is the most emphatic congregational sunna of all, as did the women of the Companions. This shows they are allowed to go outside.
