adab:935

Iyas ibn Salama related that his father said, "A man sneezed in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet said, 'May Allah have mercy on you.' Then the man sneezed again and the Prophet ﷺ said, 'This man has a cold.'"

الأدب المفرد:٩٣٥حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ

عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ عَطَسَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ عَطَسَ أُخْرَى فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَذَا مَزْكُومٌ
