حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلامٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ: «عَطَسَ ابْنٌ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، إِمَّا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَإِمَّا عُمَرُ، فَقَالَ: آبَّ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: وَمَا آبَّ؟ إِنَّ آبَّ اسْمُ شَيْطَانٍ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ جَعَلَهَا بَيْنَ الْعَطْسَةِ وَالْحَمْدِ»

“When a son of Abdullah ibn Umar, either Abu Bakr or Umar, sneezed, he said, ‘Ab!’ Ibn Umar said, ‘What is this ‘Ab’? Ab is the name of one of the shaytans who comes between the sneeze and the praise.’”
