adab:1002

Abu Qurra al-Khurasani said, "I saw Anas pass by us and he indicated to us with his hand that he was giving the greeting., The gesture made that clear. I saw al-Hasan using yellow dye while wearing a black turban. Asma' said, 'The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, waved his hand to indicate the greeting to women."  

الأدب المفرد:١٠٠٢حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَيَّاجُ بْنُ بَسَّامٍ أَبُو قُرَّةَ الْخُرَاسَانِيُّ رَأَيْتُهُ بِالْبَصْرَةِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَنَسًا يَمُرُّ عَلَيْنَا فَيُومِئُ بِيَدِهِ إِلَيْنَا فَيُسَلِّمُ وَكَانَ بِهِ وَضَحٌ وَرَأَيْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَخْضُبُ بِالصُّفْرَةِ وَعَلَيْهِ عِمَامَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ

وَقَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ أَلْوَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى النِّسَاءِ بِالسَّلامِ
