460. Dua to one who says 'May Allah bless you'

Aaishah (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was given a sheep and he ordered for its distribution. When the servant would come back [from distributing it], 'Aaishah (RA) asked, "What did they say?", he replied, "They supplicated:

بَارَكَ اللَّهُ فِيكُمْ

BaarakAllahu feekum

Aaishah (RA) then said:

وَفِيهِمْ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ

Wa feehim baarakAllah

So we return their supplication in a similar way and our reward will remain with us:

وَفِيكَ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ

Wa feeka baarakAllah
