Kalda ibn Hanbal reported that Safwan ibn Umayya sent him to the Prophet ﷺ during the Conquest of Makka with some milk, gazelle, and cucumber. (Abu 'Asim said that the meant vegetables.) The Prophet ﷺ was at the top of the valley and I did not give the greeting nor ask for permission. He said, "Go back and say, 'Peace be upon you. May I enter?' That was after Safwan had become Muslim."
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الْفَتْحِ بِلَبَنٍ وَجِدَايَةٍ وَضَغَابِيسَ قَالَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ يَعْنِي الْبَقْلَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِأَعْلَى الْوَادِي وَلَمْ أُسَلِّمْ وَلَمْ أَسْتَأْذِنْ فَقَالَ ارْجِعْ فَقُلِ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَأَدْخُلُ؟ وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا أَسْلَمَ صَفْوَانُ
