Seeking Refuge from Satan When Yawning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, some people, when they yawn, seek refuge from Satan?

Answer:
There is no basis for that. One should suppress the yawn as much as possible. If the yawn overcomes him, he should place his hand over his mouth and not open it. Yes.
