Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah likes sneezing and dislikes yawning. When one of you sneezes and praises Allah, it is the right of every Muslim who hears him to say to him «يرحمك الله». As for yawning, it is from the devil, so when one of you feels like yawning, he should try his best to suppress it. When one of you yawns, the devil laughs at him.”
