حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو غَسَّانَ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ مَالِکُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ حَدَّثَنَا سُهَيْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنًا لِأَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ يُحَدِّثُ أَبِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا تَثَاوَبَ أَحَدُکُمْ فَلْيُمْسِکْ بِيَدِهِ عَلَی فِيهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَدْخُلُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 7491
The son of Abu Said al-Khudri reported on the authority of his father that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: When one of you yawns, he should keep his mouth shut with the help of his hand, for it is the devil that enters therein.
