Q
How should one respond to a person who sneezes and praises Allah?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade us to use seven things: He forbade using gold rings, silk, Istabraq, Dibaj, red
Mayathir, Al-Qassiy, and silver utensils. He ordered us to do seven other things. To pay a visit to the
sick; to follow funeral processions; to say, “May Allah be merciful to you” to a sneezer if he says
“Praise be to Allah”; to return greetings, to accept invitations; to help others to fulfil their oaths and to
help the oppressed ones.
