Saying Yarhamuk Allah to a sneezer during the Friday Khutbah Q: What is the ruling on saying Yarhamuk Allah (may Allah be merciful to you) to a sneezer while the Imam (the one who leads congregational Prayer) is delivering the Friday Khutbah (sermon)? A: It is not permissible to do this, as it is obligatory to keep silent. A person who sneezes in Salah (Prayer) is not to be told Yarhamuk Allah, so a person who sneezes while the Imam is delivering the Khutbah is not to be told Yarhamuk Allah. May Allah grant us success. |
