Supplication for Someone does Good to You


When someone does you a favor say:

“May Allah reward you with good.”
 [Narrated by  At-Tirmidhi, no. 2035]

Instead of saying "thank you" or "thanks", saying this will make you and the recipient feel much better as you both will definitely be rewarded for it.

 [Narrated by  Al-Bukhari 4/119]

Supplication upon Sneezing


When you sneeze, say:
“All praise and thanks are to Allah.”
Your companion (the ones who hear the sneeze) should say:
 “May Allah have mercy upon you.”
When someone says this to you then you should say:
 ‘‘May Allah guide you and set your affairs in order.”
[Narrated by  Al-Bukhari 7/125]
