كَانَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) إِذَا عَطَسَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ قَالَ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَ يَرْحَمُكُمْ وَ إِذَا عَطَسَ عِنْدَهُ إِنْسَانٌ قَالَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ .
Translation
From him, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Sa’ad Bin Abu Khalaf who said, ‘It was so that whenever Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> sneezed, so it was said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> have Mercy on you<sup>asws</sup>’. He<sup>asws</sup> would say: ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Forgive you and have Mercy on you’. And whenever a person sneezed in his<sup>asws</sup> presence, he<sup>asws</sup> would say: ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic have Mercy on you’.
