Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. These are many questions; I am presenting to your eminence some of what has been made easy of them. This questioner says: What is the ruling on saying "Alhamdulillah" after belching?
Answer:
There is no basis for this. After belching, there is no basis. Belching is blameworthy. However, if it overcomes you, put something over your mouth so that no sound comes out of you, as some people do. No sound should come out of you when you belch, because it is blameworthy. It indicates laziness and indicates greed for food. So, repel it as much as you can. If you cannot, then hold it in so that no sound comes out. As for saying "Alhamdulillah," there is no basis for that.
