8. Abu Ali al-Ash’ari has narrated from Muhammad ibn Salim from Ahmad ibn al- Nadr from ‘Amr ibn Shimr from Jabir who has said the following
“Abu Ja’far (a.s.) has said, ‘Sneezing is a good thing. It benefits the body and reminds one of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy.’ I then said, ‘Nearby to us there are people who say, “There is nothing in sneezing for the Messenger of Allah.” The Imam said, ‘If they are lying, the intercession of Muhammad will not avail them.’”
8ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ النَّضْرِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) نِعْمَ الشَّيْ‏ءُ الْعَطْسَةُ تَنْفَعُ فِي الْجَسَدِ وَتُذَكِّرُ بِالله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قُلْتُ إِنَّ عِنْدَنَا قَوْماً يَقُولُونَ لَيْسَ لِرَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) فِي الْعَطْسَةِ نَصِيبٌ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانُوا كَاذِبِينَ فَلا نَالَهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ مُحَمَّدٍ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه).
