19ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْعَدَةَ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) إِذَا عَطَسَ الْمَرْءُ الْمُسْلِمُ ثُمَّ سَكَتَ لِعِلَّةٍ تَكُونُ بِهِ قَالَتِ الْمَلائِكَةُ عَنْهُ الْحَمْدُ لله رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ فَإِنْ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لله رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ قَالَتِ الْمَلائِكَةُ يَغْفِرُ الله لَكَ قَالَ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) الْعُطَاسُ لِلْمَرِيضِ دَلِيلُ الْعَافِيَةِ وَرَاحَةٌ لِلْبَدَنِ.

19. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Harun ibn Muslim from Mas’adah ibn Sadaqah from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: “The Messenger of Allah has said, ‘When a Muslim person sneezes and remains silent for reasons of illness, the angels say for him, “All praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds,” if he would say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds the angels will say, “May Allah forgive you. ’’’’The narrator has said that the Holy Prophet has said, ‘Sneezing in a person suffering illness is an indication of good health and bodily comfort.’”
