His father said: "I prayed behind the Prophet ﷺ and I sneezed and said: 'Al-hamdu lillahi, hamdan kathiran tayiban mubarakan fih, mubarakan'alaihi, kama yuhibbu rabbuna wa yarda (Praise be to Allah, much good and blessed praise as our Lord loves and is pleased with.)' When he finished praying, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Who is the one who spoke during the prayer?' But no one said anything. Then he said it a second time: 'Who is the one who spoke during the prayer?' So Rifa'ah bin Rafi bin Afrah said: 'It was me, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'I said: "Praise be to Allah, much good and blessed praise as our Lord loves and is pleased with.'" The Prophet ﷺ said: 'By the One in Whose hand is my soul, thirty-odd angels hastened to see which of them would take it up.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 931)
أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ فَعَطَسَ رِفَاعَةُ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ مُبَارَكًا عَلَيْهِ كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَيْنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟» قَالَ رِفَاعَةُ وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي غَرِمْتُ غُرَّةً مِنْ مَالِ وَإِنِّي لَمْ أشْهَدْ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةَ حِينَ قَالَ «أَيْنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ؟» فَقُلْتُ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «كَيْفَ قُلْتُ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ مُبَارَكًا عَلَيْهِ كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدِ ابْتَدَرَهَا بِضْعًا وَثَلَاثُونَ مَلَكًا أَيُّهُمْ يَصْعَدُ بِهَا»
