Suppress yawning

التَّثَاؤُبُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِذَا تَثَاءَبَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَرُدَّهُ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ

At-tatha'ubu mina-sh-shaytan, fa-idha tatha'aba ahadukum fa-l-yarudd-hu ma-stata'.

"Yawning is from Satan. When one of you yawns, let him suppress it as best he can."

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah. Sahih al-Bukhari 6223

A short reflection

A tiny instruction. Cover the mouth, hold the sound. The shaytan smiles at slackness; cover the moment.
