كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَأَحْصَيْتُ فِي الْبَيْتِ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَعَطَسَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَمَا تَكَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَ لَا تُسَمِّتُونَ أَ لَا تُسَمِّتُونَ مِنْ حَقِّ الْمُؤْمِنِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ إِذَا مَرِضَ أَنْ يَعُودَهُ وَ إِذَا مَاتَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ جَنَازَتَهُ وَ إِذَا عَطَسَ أَنْ يُسَمِّتَهُ أَوْ قَالَ يُشَمِّتَهُ وَ إِذَا دَعَاهُ أَنْ يُجِيبَهُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ibn Fazzal, from Ja’far Bin Yunus, from Dawood Bin Al Husayn who said, ‘We were in the presence of Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, and I counted in the room, there were fourteen men. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> sneezed, and no one from the group spoke (a word)’. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Are you not Naming (Allah<sup>azwj</sup>)? Are you not Naming (Allah<sup>azwj</sup>)? From the rights of the <span class="iTxt">Momin</span> upon the <span class="iTxt">Momin</span> is that when he is sick, that you should visit him, and when he dies, that you should attend his funeral, and when he sneezes, that you should Name (Allah<sup>azwj</sup>)’. Or he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yushammituhu’ (be glad for him)’, ‘And when he invites you, that you answer him’.
