Sunan Abi Dawud 5039 (Book 43, Hadith 267) #25330
Praising Allah Rewarded with Mercy

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) showed mercy to one person who praised Allah and not the other who did not.

Anas said: Two men sneezed in the presence of the prophet (May peace be upon him). He said : Allah have mercy on you! To one and not to the other. He was asked: Messenger of Allah! Two persons sneezed. Ahmad’s version has: You invoked a blessing on one of them and left the other. He replied : This man praised Allah, and this man did not praise Allah.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، - الْمَعْنَى - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ عَطَسَ رَجُلاَنِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ فَشَمَّتَ أَحَدَهُمَا وَتَرَكَ الآخَرَ قَالَ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَجُلاَنِ عَطَسَا فَشَمَّتَّ أَحَدَهُمَا - قَالَ أَحْمَدُ أَوْ فَشَمَّتَّ أَحَدَهُمَا - وَتَرَكْتَ الآخَرَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ هَذَا حَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَإِنَّ هَذَا لَمْ يَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ

Praise Allah sincerely and faithfully whenever possible

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of praising Allah. It teaches us that when we praise Allah, He will show us mercy in return. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ demonstrated this by showing mercy to one of two men who sneezed in his presence, because he praised Allah while the other did not. This hadith also shows us that even small acts of worship can be rewarded by God if done sincerely and with faith. We should always remember to thank and praise God for all His blessings, no matter how small they may seem.
