The response to the sneezer when a group hears it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: If a Muslim sneezes and a group of people hears it, is it obligatory for all of them to respond to him?

Answer:
This is a recommended practice (sunnah) of collective obligation (fard kifayah); if one person responds to him, it suffices for the rest. Yes.
