Is it valid to perform gargling and nasal inhalation if I sneeze before spitting out the water?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: You previously stated with us that one of the characteristics of nasal inhalation and gargling is that they are to be done from a single mouthful of water. The question is: Is there any harm if I sneeze before spitting out the water in my mouth, or is it required that I spit out the water first and then sneeze?

Answer:
There is no harm in that. There is no harm in spitting out the water and sneezing; whichever comes first, there is no harm in that. Yes.
