Saying "Al-Hamdulillah" When Sneezing, Its Reply, and Manners Relating to Sneezing and Yawning

وَعَنْ أَبِي موسي رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ‏:‏ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ‏:‏ ‏ ‏إِذَا عَطَسَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ فَشَمِّتُوهُ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ فَلاَ تُشَمِّتُوهُ‏ ‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رَوَاهُ مُسْلِم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "When one of you sneezes and praises Allah (i.e., says Al-hamdu lillah), you should invoke Allah's Mercy upon him (i.e., say Yarhamuk-Allah); but if he does not praise Allah, you should not respond." [Muslim].
