حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا، فَلَمَّا رَجَعْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِ النَّجَاشِيِّ سَلَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْنَا، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَتَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا؟ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ فِيَّ - أَوْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ - لَشُغْلًا.

✧ We used to greet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in prayer, and he would respond to us. When we returned from the Negus, we greeted him, but he did not respond to us. We said: O Messenger of Allah, we used to greet you during prayer, and you would respond to us. He said: In me—or in the prayer—there is indeed preoccupation.
