حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْعُطَاسَ وَيَکْرَهُ التَّثَاؤُبَ فَإِذَا تَثَائَبَ أَحَدُکُمْ فَلْيَرُدَّهُ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ وَلَا يَقُلْ هَاهْ هَاهْ فَإِنَّمَا ذَلِکُمْ مِنْ الشَّيْطَانِ يَضْحَکُ مِنْهُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 5028
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Allah likes sneezing but dislikes yawning. So when one of you yawns, he should restrain it as much as possible, and should not say Ha, Ha, for that is from the devil who laughs at him.
