Seeking Refuge from Allah When Yawning
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. Does the one who yawns seek refuge from Satan when he yawns, based on the saying of Allah:[Al-A'raf 7:200]?
Answer:
This has not been transmitted. What was transmitted is that the one who yawns should hold back his yawn as much as he can. If the yawn overcomes him, he should place his hand over his mouth to cover it, not open it, and not let the sound of his yawn be heard; rather, he should lower his voice. As for seeking refuge from Satan, it is not prescribed in this place because it has not been transmitted. Yes.
