حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ الْمَعْنَى قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ
عَطَسَ رَجُلاَنِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَشَمَّتَ أَحَدَهُمَا وَتَرَكَ الآخَرَ قَالَ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَجُلاَنِ عَطَسَا فَشَمَّتَّ أَحَدَهُمَا قَالَ أَحْمَدُ أَوْ فَشَمَّتَّ أَحَدَهُمَا وَتَرَكْتَ الآخَرَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا حَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَإِنَّ هَذَا لَمْ يَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ

Two men sneezed in the presence of the prophet (May peace be upon him). He said: Allah have mercy on you! To one and not to the other. He was asked: Messenger of Allah! Two persons sneezed. Ahmad’s version has: You invoked a blessing on one of them and left the other. He replied: This man praised Allah, and this man did not praise Allah.
