Speaking During Prayer

Question
Is it permissible for a person praying to say a blessing upon the Prophet (peace be upon him) if they hear someone else doing so during the prayer? And if the person praying sneezes, should they say: 'Praise be to God'?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: It is disliked to the extent of being prohibited; because it is not part of the actions of prayer, and God knows best.
