"We used to greet the Prophet ﷺ with salam and he would return our salam, until we came back from the land of Ethiopia. I greeted him with salam and he did not return my greeting,a nd I started to wonder why. So I sat down; and when he finished praying, he said: 'Allah (SWT) decrees what He wills, and He has decreed what we should not speak during the prayer.'"  

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا السَّلاَمَ حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَىَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَرُبَ وَمَا بَعُدَ فَجَلَسْتُ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى الصَّلاَةَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ لاَ يُتَكَلَّمَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ  

We used to salute during prayer and talk about our needs. I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found him praying. I saluted him, but he did not respond to me. I recalled what happened to me in the past and in the present. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he said to me: Allah, the Almighty, creates new command as He wishes, and Allah, the Exalted, has sent a fresh command that you must not talk during prayer. He then returned my salutation.  

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ وَنَأْمُرُ بِحَاجَتِنَا فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَىَّ السَّلاَمَ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الصَّلاَةَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَعَزَّ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ لاَ تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَرَدَّ عَلَىَّ السَّلاَمَ  

"We used to greet the Prophet ﷺ with salam and he would return our salam, until we came back from the land of Ethiopia. I greeted him with salam and he did not return my greeting,a nd I started to wonder why. So I sat down; and when he finished praying, he said: 'Allah (SWT) decrees what He wills, and He has decreed what we should not speak during the prayer.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1221)   

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ كُنَّا بِمَكَّةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ نَأْتِيَ أَرْضَ الْحَبَشَةِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ أَتَيْنَاهُ فَسَلَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَرُبَ وَمَا بَعُدَ حَتَّى قَضَوْا الصَّلَاةَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ فِي أَمْرِهِ مَايَشَاءُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أُحْدِثَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ لَا نَتَكَلَّمَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] "We used to speak during prayer, greet each other, and advise one another about our needs. So, I approached the Prophet ﷺ and greeted him while he was praying, but he did not respond to me. He seized my hand and prevented me from moving forward or speaking. After he finished the prayer, he said, 'Indeed, Allah, the Almighty, speaks and decrees whatever He wills, and He has commanded that no one should speak during the prayer.'"  

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَيُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَيُوصِي أَحَدُنَا بِالْحَاجَةِ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] We were talking during the prayer, so I approached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greeted him, but he did not respond to me. He took hold of what had happened and what was said and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah speaks to His Prophet according to His will." Shu'bah said, "I believe he said from what He wills," and indeed, from what was revealed to His Prophet ﷺ is that you should not speak during the prayer.  

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ يُحْدِثُ لِنَبِيِّهِ مَا شَاءَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَدْ قَالَ مِمَّا شَاءَ وَإِنَّ مِمَّا أَحْدَثَ لِنَبِيِّهِ ﷺ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] We used to talk during prayer, greeting each other and indicating our needs. One day, I came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was praying, so I greeted him but he did not respond to me. He gestured to me what had happened and what was said. When he finished, he said, "Indeed, Allah speaks of His affairs as He wills, and He has informed me that you should not speak during prayer."  

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ يُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَيُومِئُ أَحَدُنَا بِالْحَاجَةِ فَجِئْتُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَتَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ»  

[Machine] Ibn Masud, we used to say salaam to the Prophet ﷺ while he was praying, and he would respond to us. But when I returned from Abyssinia, I said salaam to him and he did not respond to me. He then started narrating to me everything, whatever had passed and what happened in my absence. Then I waited for him until he finished his prayer, and I mentioned that incident to him. He said: Verily, Allah speaks whatever He wills and He has spoken to me. And He informed me that I should not speak during the prayer.  

ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَيَرُدَّ عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا جِئْتُ مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْنَا فَأَخَذَنِي مَا تَقَدَّمَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ ثُمَّ انْتَظَرْتُهُ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ يُحَدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ قَضَى أَوْ قَالَ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] We used to speak during prayer and greet each other, and one of us would indicate to his companion about a need. So, one day I came and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was praying, so I greeted him but he did not respond to me. He held me by the shoulders and told me what was before and what will happen. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished, he said, "Verily, Allah speaks of His affairs as He wills, and indeed He has ordered that you do not speak during the prayer."  

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَيُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَيُومِئُ أَحَدُنَا لِصَاحِبِهِ بِالْحَاجَةِ فَجِئْتُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ وَقَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ»  

[Machine] We used to talk during prayer, greeting each other. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, Allah speaks to His people in whatever way He wills, and He has just decreed that you should not speak during Salah."  

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ يُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَقَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ»  

"We used to greet the Prophet ﷺ with salam and he would return our salam, until we came back from the land of Ethiopia. I greeted him with salam and he did not return my greeting,a nd I started to wonder why. So I sat down; and when he finished praying, he said: 'Allah (SWT) decrees what He wills, and He has decreed what we should not speak during the prayer.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1221)  

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا السَّلَامَ حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يُرِدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَرُبَ وَمَا بَعُدَ فَجَلَسْتُ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَلَا يُتَكَلَّمَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ»

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he said to me: Allah, the Almighty, creates new command as He wishes, and Allah, the Exalted, has sent a fresh command that you must not talk during prayer. He then returned my salutation. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 924)   

كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَنَأْمُرُ بِحَاجَتِنَا فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ السَّلَامَ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ وَإِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ السَّلَامَ  

[Machine] I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greeted him, but he did not respond to me. He began to speak to me about what has passed and what will happen. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, is there something new?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah informed His Prophet of His affairs as He wills, and one of the things He has informed is that you should not speak in prayer."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَحَدَثَ شَيْءٌ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ لِنَبِيِّهِ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنْ مِمَّا أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ
