Is seeking refuge from Satan when yawning prescribed?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I ask Allah for your sake: Is it said that yawning is a prick from Satan, so one seeks refuge when he yawns?
The Shaykh:
Whatever has come regarding the matter, we take the verse as the basis, for there is no doubt that it is from Satan, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Bulugh al-Maram 2:120 Therefore, people have become accustomed to saying, "I seek refuge in Allah from Satan," because they know that it is from Satan.
The questioner:
There is no harm in that.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in it, but it is not said that the Sunnah is established except by evidence. However, the generality of the verse implies that. Yes.

Yawning is caused by the devil, so when one of you yawns he must repress it as much as he can.

There is no harm in that.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in it, but it is not said that the Sunnah is established except by evidence. However, the generality of the verse implies that. Yes.
