Sahih Muslim: Book 55, Hadith 72

Iyas b. Salama b. al-Akwa reported that his father reported to him that he heard Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) as saying: A person sneezed in his presence and he said to him: May Allah have mercy upon you. And he then sneezed for the second time and Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to him: He is suffering from cold (and no response is necessary).

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ إِيَاسِ،
بْنِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ح

وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، – وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ
حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنِي إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ
صلى الله عليه وسلم وَعَطَسَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ ‏”‏ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ عَطَسَ أُخْرَى
فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ الرَّجُلُ مَزْكُومٌ ‏”‏ ‏.‏
