Do I need to repeat namaz after sneezing during prayer?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
While praying namaz I sneezed, unknowingly I recited Alhamdulillah. Do I have to repeat the namaz or just have to take sajdah sahv.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In the question mentioned above neither you will have to repeat your salah nor have to do sajdah sahv. Had someone else sneezed and you answered with Yarhamakullah then your salah would have become invalid.
