My brother sneezes 5 times in a row! do i haveto say yarhamukullah
after every sneeze, or can i just wait and say it once at the end?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Saying "Yarhamuk Allah (may Allah have mercy on you)" to a person who
sneezes, if he says "Al hamdu Lillah (praise be to Allah)," is a
communal obligation, in the sense that if one person says it, the
obligation is waived for the others. If no one among those who hear
him says it, then all have sinned, because of the report narrated by
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger
of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "There are
five things that the Muslim must do for his brother: returning the
greeting of salaam, saying 'Yarhamuk Allah' to one who sneezes…"
Narrated by Muslim (4022)
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:Our
companions and others differed concerning visiting one who is sick,
saying "Yarhamuk Allah" to one who sneezes and initiating the greeting
ofsalaam. What the texts indicate is that these things are waajib
(obligatory), and it is said that it is a communal obligation.

Secondly:
If a person sneezes morethan three times, you should not say "Yarhamuk
Allah" to him;rather you should pray for well-being for him, because
of what is narrated in al-Muwatta' (1521) from 'Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr
from his father, that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) said: "If he sneezes, say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to him;
then if he sneezes, say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to him; then if he sneezes,
say 'Yarhamuk Allah' to him; then if he sneezes, say: 'You have a
cold." 'Abdullah said: I do not know whether that is after the third
or fourth time.
And it was narrated that Salamah ibn al-Akwa' (may Allah be pleased
with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah
be upon him) said: "The one who sneezes may be told Yarhamuk-Allaah
three times; if he sneezes more than that, he has a cold." Narrated by
Ibn Maajah (3704); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Sunan Ibn
Maajah.
An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:If a person sneezes
several times in a row, the Sunnah is to say "Yarhamuk Allah" each
time until he reaches three. We narrated in Saheeh Muslim, Sunan Abi
Dawood and at-Tirmidhi from Salamah ibn al-Akwa' (may Allah be pleased
with him) that he heard the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him) say, when a man sneezed in his presence, "Yarhamuk Allah."
Then he sneezed again, and the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace
of Allah be upon him) said: "The man has a cold." This wording is the
report narrated by Muslim.
As for the report narrated by Abu Dawoodand at-Tirmidhi, they said: A
man sneezed in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and
peace of Allah be upon him) whilst I [the narrator] was watching, and
the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "Yarhamuk Allah." Then the man sneezed a second or third time
andthe Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "Yarhamuk Allah, this is aman who has a cold."
At-Tirmidhi said: A saheeh hasan hadeeth. End quote from Kitaab
al-Adhkaar, 1/273
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: Is it
obligatory to say "Yarhamuk Allah" to one who sneezes once, and ifhe
sneezes three times to repeat that three times or more?
He replied: If he sneezes three times and you say "Yarhamuk Allah"
each time, then after the thirdsneeze you should say tohim: " 'Aafaaka
Allah (may Allah grant you well-being); because that is a cold, so
say: MayAllah grant you well-being; you have a cold. All you have to
say is: May Allah grant you well-being, and you mayadd: You have a
cold.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
