A Muslim owes another Muslim five rights: responding to the greetings, visiting the sick, following the funerals, accepting the invitation, and responding to the sneezing person Whenever the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sneezed, he would cover his mouth with his hand or cloth, lowering the sound therewith If any of you yawns, let him put his hand over his mouth The Muslim owes his fellow Muslim six (things): when you meet him, greet him; when he invites you, accept his invitation; when he asks for your advice, give him advice; when he sneezes and praises Allah, say: May Allah have mercy on you; when he is ill, visit him; and when he dies, follow his funeral. When one of you sneezes, he should say "alhamdu-lillāh" (praise be to Allah) and his brother or companion should say to him: "yarhamuk Allah" (may Allah have mercy on you). When he says so to him, the sneezer should reply: "yahdīkum Allah wa yuslih bālakum!" (may Allah guide you and grant you well being)
