حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ، أَنْبأَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ , عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ الصَّوَّافِ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ هِلَالٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ، بِنَحْوِهِ.

Brief Explanation
(Explanation of Hadiths 1540 to 1542)
In the early days of Islam, worshippers used to converse during the prayer, but when this noble verse: «﴿وَقُومُوا لِلّٰهِ قَانِتِينَ﴾» was revealed, they were prohibited from conversing.
Now, if anyone utters a word that is not part of the prayer, something outside of the prayer, then by saying such a thing the prayer will become invalid. Some scholars have said that if a worshipper, upon sneezing, says "Alhamdulillah" (all praise is due to Allah), it is permissible because this is praise (tahmid) and is part of the prayer. However, he should not say "Yarhamuk Allah" (may Allah have mercy on you), because this is a supplication for the one who sneezed, which is outside the prayer. Therefore, by saying "Yarhamuk Allah," the prayer will become invalid, as the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: "In prayer, there is only glorification (tasbih), magnification (takbir), and recitation of the Qur'an, and this alone is called prayer."
From this hadith, the noble character, method of teaching, and forbearance and patience of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) are established «(فداه أبى و أمي عليه الصلاة والسلام)».
