Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (radi Allahu anhu) reported that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: "Allah likes sneezing & dislikes yawning: so if anyone of you sneezes & then praises Allah, every Muslim who hears him (praising Allah) has to say, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on you." But as regards yawning, it is from Shaytaan, so if one of you yawns, he should try his best to stop it, for when anyone of you yawns, Shaitaan laughs at him." (Bukhari)
If the one who sneezes is a Christian, Jew or any non-Muslim, respond by saying: "Yahdikumullah-o-wa-Yusleh Balakum" (May Allah give you guidance & make your children pious).
It is mentioned in the Hadees that any person who says "Alhamd-o-Lillahi Ala-Kull-e-Haalin" at the time of sneezing, he will never experience an earache or a toothache. It is unlawful to consider the sound of sneeze as a sign of bad omen.
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: "The yawning is from the Shaytaan. So when one of you yawns, he should try to restrain it as far as it lies in his power." (Muslim)
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (radi Allahu anhu) reported: "At the time of sneezing, Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) used to cover his mouth either with his hand or with a cloth & lowered his sound." (Tirmizi)
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'eed Khudri (radi Allahu anhu) reported that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: "Keep your hand over your mouth while yawning as the Shaitaan enters an open mouth." (Muslim)
