He (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Two men sneezed in your (peace and blessings be upon him) presence. You (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for one of them by saying 'Yarhamuk Allah' and did not say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to the other?"

I went back to my mother and told her about this. When he came to her, she said: "My son sneezed in your presence and you did not say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to him, and this girl sneezed and you said 'Yarhamuk Allah' to her." He said: "Your son sneezed and did not say 'Alhamdulillah' (All praise is for Allah), so I did not say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to him; and this girl sneezed and said 'Alhamdulillah', so I answered her with 'Yarhamuk Allah'. And I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'When one of you sneezes and says Alhamdulillah, then pray for him by saying Yarhamuk Allah; and when he does not say Alhamdulillah, then do not say Yarhamuk Allah to him.'"
