[Machine] We used to greet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was praying, and he would respond to us. However, when we returned from Abyssinia, I greeted him and he did not respond to me. So, I said, "Oh Messenger of Allah, you used to respond to us." He replied, "The act of praying is sufficient occupation for me, not allowing me to respond."
كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مِنَ الْحَبَشَةِ سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ كُنْتَ تُرَدُّ عَلَيْنَا قَالَ كَفَى بِالصَّلَاةِ شُغُلًا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ
