The Ruling on Responding to a Sneeze

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on responding to a sneeze? Is it like returning the salam in that it is not obligatory for everyone who hears it, so that it suffices for some to do it?

Answer:
Yes, yes, it is a collective obligation; if some of those present respond to it, that suffices.
