Sneezing: A miraculous scientific aspect of the blessed Sunnah
Medically, it is common knowledge that when one sneezes, the
abdominal pressure increases, which may harm pregnant women, people with dropsy, umbilical hernia, inguinal hernia, and other such cases.
Likewise, while sneezing, the pressure inside the brain and the eyes increases and may cause internal bleeding. However, this does not happen in most cases, by the Mercy of Allaah The Exalted, Who created man in the best form.
Dr. Ahmad Shawqi Ibraaheem, member of the Royal Society of Medicine in London, says that what happens at the moment of sneezing and the deep and sudden breath that precedes it comprises a set of complicated physiological changes which can be expounded by doctors in great detail. However, we can simply say that the Mercy of Allaah The Almighty descends upon man at this moment protecting him from sudden damage that may afflict him.
Hence, there is nothing less than saying “Al-Hamdulillaah (praise be to Allaah)” after sneezing to express gratitude to Allaah The Almighty for this blessing.
The one who hears the sneezer thanking Allaah The Almighty must supplicate for him and ask Allaah The Almighty to
maintain His Mercy upon him, as manifested during the moment of
sneezing.
This scientific understanding is likely to explain the scientific indication in the command of the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, to supplicate for the sneezing person and ask Allaah The Almighty to maintain His Mercy upon him.
The Hadeeth (narration) reads, a man sneezed while sitting with the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, so, he asked, “O Messenger of Allaah, what should I say when I sneeze?” The Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “You should say, ‘Al-hamdu-Lillaah (Praise be to Allaah).’” Other people who were present said, “Then, what should we say to him?” The Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Say, ‘Yarhamuk Allaah (May Allaah have mercy on you).’” The man then asked, “If they said so to me, what should I say in reply to them?” The Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “You should say, ‘Yahdeekum Allaah wa yuslihu baalakum (May Allaah guide you and amend your conditions).’”
In another narration, “Yarhamuni Wa Yarhamukum Allaah (May
Allaah The Almighty have mercy upon me and you).”
