Hadith 8246
اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَتِ الْيَهُودُ يَتَعَاطَسُونَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَاءَ أَنْ يَقُولَ لَهُمْ يَرْحَمُكُمُ اللَّهُ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَهُمْ يَهْدِيكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيُصْلِحُ بَالَكُمْ
Syedna Abu Musa Ash'ari, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates that the Jews used to sneeze in the presence of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, hoping that he would say to them, "Yarhamukumullah" (May Allah have mercy on you). But the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would reply to them: "Yahdikumullah wa yuslihu balakum" (May Allah guide you and set your affairs right).
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The supplication for mercy is specific to Muslims; however, supplication for guidance may be made for every non-Muslim.
