Notes

• قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ فِيمَا رَأَى أَنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ لَا يُسَلِّمَ وَيُسَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ وَتَغْرِيرُ الرَّجُلِ بِصَلَاتِهِ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ وَهُوَ فِيهَا شَاكٌّ هَذَا «هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ مُسْلِمٍ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ» وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَشَكَّ فِي رَفْعِهِعلى شرط مسلم

  machine translationAḥmad b. Ḥanbal said, as he saw it, that he meant that one should not give the salutation and then have the salutation returned to you, and that a man's risking his prayer is that he gives the salutation while he is in doubt about it. This is "a authentic hadith (ṣaḥīḥ) according to the condition of Muslim, and they did not record it." Muʿāwiyah b. Hishām also narrated it from al-Thawrī, and he doubted whether it was raised (marfūʿ). According to the condition of Muslim. Report a problem
