[Machine] "A Jew passed by the Prophet ﷺ and his companions and said 'As-Salamu 'Alaykum' (peace be upon you). The companions of the Prophet ﷺ responded to him, and then the Prophet ﷺ said, 'He only said: "The poison be upon you." The Jew was then captured and brought before them, and he confessed. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Return their greeting in the same way they greeted you.'"

أَنَّ يَهُودِيًّا مَرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا قَالَ السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَأُخِذَ الْيَهُودِيُّ فَجِيءَ بِهِ فَاعْتَرَفَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رُدُّوا عَلَيْهِمْ مَا قَالُوا
