[Machine] About a man who greeted him while he was not in a state of ritual purity. So he (the Prophet) said: Sa'eed narrated to us from Qatadah from Al-Hasan from Al-Hudhayn, the father of Sasanah, from Al-Muhajir bin Qunfudh that he greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was performing ablution, and he did not respond to him until he completed his ablution. Then he responded to him and said: "I did not hesitate to respond to you except that I disliked mentioning Allah except in a state of purity."  

أحمد:١٩٠٣٤ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ سُئِلَ

عَنْ رَجُلٍ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ غَيْرُ مُتَوَضِّئٍ؟ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ الْحُضَيْنِ أَبِي سَاسَانَ عَنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ قُنْفُذٍ أَنَّهُ سَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَوَضَّأَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أَرُدَّ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنِّي كَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَ اللهَ إِلَّا عَلَى طَهَارَةٍ
