Sahih al-Bukhari 6225 (Book 78, Hadith 249) #5978
Being Thankful and Praising Allah

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ taught us to be thankful and to praise Allah when someone sneezes.

Narrated Anas: Two men sneezed before the Prophet and he said Tashmit to one of them, while he did not say Tashmit to the other. So that man said, "O Allah's Messenger ! You said Tashmit to that fellow but you did not say Tashmit to me".The Prophet said, "That man praised Allah, but you did not praise Allah".
حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ عَطَسَ رَجُلاَنِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ فَشَمَّتَ أَحَدَهُمَا وَلَمْ يُشَمِّتِ الآخَرَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ شَمَّتَّ هَذَا وَلَمْ تُشَمِّتْنِي‏.‏ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ هَذَا حَمِدَ اللَّهَ، وَلَمْ تَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) teaches us the importance of being thankful and praising Allah. This is demonstrated when two men sneezed in front of him, and he said “Tashmit” to one of them but not the other. When the man asked why he was not given a blessing, the Prophet replied that it was because only one of them had praised Allah for his sneeze. This hadith shows us that we should always remember to thank God for all our blessings, no matter how small they may seem. We should also take every opportunity we can to praise Him for His greatness and mercy towards us.
