The ruling on seeking refuge with Allah when yawning
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When a person seeks refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan, some people have become accustomed to reciting this phrase when they yawn, along with the seeking of refuge. Is there any evidence for this?
Answer:
No, this has no basis. What is established is that one should lower the sound of the yawn as much as possible, hold it in as much as possible, and place his hand over his mouth if the yawn overcomes him so that it makes no sound. He places his hand over his mouth and does not open his mouth, but rather covers it with his hand or his garment. Yes.
