Sunan Abi Dawud, 5026
sahih· Al-Albani

Abu Sa’id al-Khudri reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying:

When one of you yawns, he should hold his hand over his mouth, for the devil enters.

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

‏ إِذَا تَثَاءَبَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيُمْسِكْ عَلَى فِيهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَدْخُلُ ‏

‏ ‏.‏
