The questioner : If ... the other person, is it obligatory for him to make him hear the supplication?
The Shaykh : In the answer? Beside him, or in the response to the sneeze?
The questioner : The response to the sneeze.
The Shaykh : He must hear it, he must. If he does not hear it, what is the benefit? He must say, "May Allah have mercy on you," in a way that he hears it. And the sneezer must respond in a way that he hears it as well, saying, "May Allah guide you and rectify your condition," or saying, "May Allah forgive us and you," according to what came in the Sunnah.
