Question:  Is it bad to yawn?

Answer: The Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasalla) said:

التثاؤب من الشيطان رواه البخاري

“Yawning is from Shytaan

Yawning leads to lethargy. The devil brings a lethargic effect upon people to keep them away from good deeds. If one is influenced by this devilish effect, one would be deprived of all good work. The Messenger Sallallahu Alahi Wasallam taught us to ward off laziness and combat it with doing good actions.

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
