كُنْتُ أُجَالِسُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَلَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ مَجْلِساً أَنْبَلَ مِنْ مَجَالِسِهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيْنَ تَخْرُجُ الْعَطْسَةُ فَقُلْتُ مِنَ الْأَنْفِ فَقَالَ لِي أَصَبْتَ الْخَطَأَ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مِنْ أَيْنَ تَخْرُجُ فَقَالَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْبَدَنِ كَمَا أَنَّ النُّطْفَةَ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْبَدَنِ وَ مَخْرَجُهَا مِنَ الْإِحْلِيلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ مَا رَأَيْتَ الْإِنْسَانَ إِذَا عَطَسَ نُفِضَ أَعْضَاؤُهُ وَ صَاحِبُ الْعَطْسَةِ يَأْمَنُ الْمَوْتَ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from one of his companions, reporting it from a man from the general Muslims having said, ‘I used to sit in a gathering of Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, so, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, I had not seen a gathering nobler than his<sup>asws</sup> gathering. He<sup>asws</sup> said to me one day, ‘From where does the sneeze come out?’ So I said, ‘From the nose’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to me: ‘You are wrong’. So I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>! From where does it come out?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘From the entire body, just as the sperm comes out from the entire body, and its exit is from the urethra’. Then he<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> said: ‘Have you not seen the person when he sneezes, his body parts shake? And the sneezer is safe from the death for seven days’.
