"Worship the Most Merciful and spread (the greeting of) peace.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3694)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اعْبُدُوا الرَّحْمَنَ وَأَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ وَأَطْعِمُوا الطَّعَامَ تَدْخُلُوا الْجِنَانَ» *  

[Machine] He said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform me of something that would guarantee me Paradise." He replied, "You should practice good speech and give greetings of peace."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ يُوجِبُ لِيَ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «عَلَيْكَ بِحُسْنِ الْكَلَامِ وَبَذْلِ السَّلَامِ»  

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Spread peace and you will be safe."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ تَسْلَمُوا»  

that he asked Anas bin Malik: "Did the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ use to shake each other's hand?" He said, "Yes." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2729)   

قُلْتُ لِأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَكَانَتِ الْمُصَافَحَةُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ»  

[Machine] A man passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in a gathering and said, "Peace be upon you." The Prophet ﷺ responded, "Ten rewards." Then another man passed by and said, "Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Twenty rewards." Then another man passed by and said, "Peace be upon you, the mercy of Allah, and His blessings." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Thirty rewards." Then a man stood up from the gathering without giving salutations, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "What is so close that the person forgets to give greetings? When one of you enters a gathering, let him give salutations. If he decides to sit, let him sit. If he gets up, let him give salutations, as the first person does not have more right than the last person."  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فقَالَ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ فقَالَ «عَشْرُ حَسَنَاتٍ» ثُمَّ مَرَّ رَجُلٌ آخَرَ فقَالَ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ فقَالَ «عِشْرُونَ حَسَنَةً» فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ آخَرَ فقَالَ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ فقَالَ «ثَلَاثُونَ حَسَنَةً» فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمَجْلِسِ وَلَمْ يُسَلِّمْ فقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا أَوْشَكَ مَا نَسِيَ صَاحِبُكُمْ ‍‍ إِذَا جَاءَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْمَجْلِسِ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ فَلْيَجْلِسْ فَإِنْ قَامَ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَلَيْسَتِ الْأُولَى بِأَحَقَّ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ»  

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When one of you arrives at the gathering, then give the Salam, and if he is given a place to sit, then let him sit. Then when he stands, let him give the Salam, the first is more worthy than the last." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2706)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا انْتَهَى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى مَجْلِسٍ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ فَلْيَجْلِسْ فَإِذَا قَامَ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَلَيْسَتِ الْأُولَى بِأَحَقَّ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: When one of you comes to an assembly, he should give a salutation and if he feels inclined to get up, he should give a salutation, for the former is not more of a duty than the latter. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5208)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا انْتَهَى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى مَجْلِسٍ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ وَإِذَا قَامَ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَلَيْسَتِ الْأُولَى بِأَحَقَّ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ»  

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When one of you arrives at the gathering, then give the Salam, and if he is given a place to sit, then let him sit. Then when he stands, let him give the Salam, the first is more worthy than the last." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2706)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا انْتَهَى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى مَجْلِسٍ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ فَلْيَجْلِسْ ثُمَّ إِذَا قَامَ فَلْيُسَلِّمْ فَلَيْسَتِ الْأُولَى بِأَحَقَّ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, he said, "Let the rider greet the one who is walking, and the one who is walking greet the one who is sitting, and the few greet the many."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لِيُسَلِّمِ الْفَارِسُ عَلَى الْمَاشِي وَالْمَاشِي عَلَى الْقَاعِدِ وَالْقَلِيلُ عَلَى الْكَثِيرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let the one riding greet the one walking, and the one walking greet the one sitting, and whichever of the two begins the greeting is better."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لِيُسَلِّمِ الرَّاكِبُ عَلَى الْمَاشِي وَالْمَاشِي عَلَى الْقَاعِدِ وَالْمَاشِيَانِ أَيُّهُمَا بَدَأَ فَهُوَ أَفْضَلُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Three people are under the guarantee and protection of Allah: Whoever enters his house and says, 'I seek refuge in Allah', he will be protected by Allah; whoever goes out to the mosque and says, 'I seek refuge in Allah', he will be protected by Allah; and whoever goes out for the sake of Allah, he will be protected by Allah."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «ثَلَاثَةٌ كُلُّهُمْ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ إِنْ عَاشَ رُزِقَ وَكُفِيَ وَإِنْ مَاتَ أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ مَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ فَسَلَّمَ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَمَنْ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَمَنْ خَرَجَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Do not initiate greetings of peace with the people of the Book. But if you meet them on a road, then force them to the narrowest part.'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تُبَادِرُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ بِالسَّلَامِ فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فِي طَرِيقٍ فَاضْطَرُّوهُمْ إِلَى أَضْيَقِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not initiate greetings of peace with the people of the Scripture, and if you come across them on a path, narrow it for them."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَبْدَؤُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ بِالسَّلَامِ وَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُمْ فِي طَرِيقٍ فَاضْطَرُّوهُمْ إِلَى أَضْيَقِهِ»  

When the Jews offer you salutations, some of them say as-Sam-u-'Alaikum (death be upon you). You should say (in response to it): Let it be upon you. (Using translation from Muslim 2164a)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ إِذَا سَلَّمُوا عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّمَا يَقُولُ أَحَدُهُمُ السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ فَقُلْ وَعَلَيْكَ»  

[Machine] "A Jew greeted the Prophet ﷺ and his companions, saying, 'As-salamu 'alaykum' (peace be upon you). The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Do you know what he said?' They replied, 'Yes, he greeted us by saying 'as-salamu 'alaykum.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'No, he actually said 'as-samu 'alaykum' (death be upon you), meaning that you should abandon your religion. So when a person from the People of the Book greets you, respond by saying 'wa 'alayk' (and upon you).'"  

أَنَّ يَهُودِيًّا سَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ فقَالَ السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَتَدْرُونَ مَا قَالَ؟ » قَالُوا نَعَمْ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْنَا قَالَ «لَا إِنَّمَا قَالَ السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَيْ تُسَامُونَ دِينَكُمْ فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فَقُولُوا وَعَلَيْكَ»  

[Machine] "That Hane' came to the Messenger of Allahﷺ with his people and heard them calling him Hane' Abu Al-Hakam. So the Messenger of Allahﷺ called him and said, 'Indeed, Allah is the Judge and to Him belongs all judgment. So why do they call you Abu Al-Hakam?' He said, 'O Messenger of Allah, when my people differ in something, they accept my judgment, and I judge between them.' So he said, 'That is good. What is your status in regard to having children?' He said, 'Shurayh, Abdullah, and Muslim.' He said, 'Which of them is the eldest?' He said, 'Shurayh.' He said, 'Then you are Abu Shurayh.' So the Messenger of Allahﷺ supplicated for him and his children. When the people wanted to return to their lands, he gave each of them a piece of land wherever they liked in their lands. Abu Shurayh said, 'O Messenger of Allah, tell me something that will make me enter Paradise.' He said, 'Good speech, spreading peace, and feeding food.'"  

أَنَّ هَانِئًا لَمَّا وَفَدَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَعَ قَوْمِهِ فَسَمِعَهُمْ يُكَنُّونَ هَانِئًا أَبَا الْحَكَمِ فَدَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فقَالَ «إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْحَكَمُ وَإِلَيْهِ الْحُكْمُ فَلِمَ تُكَنَّى أَبَا الْحَكَمِ»؟ قَالَ قَوْمِي إِذَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي شَيْءٍ رَضُوا بِي حَكَمًا فَأَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ فقَالَ «إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَحَسَنٌ فَمَا لَكَ مِنَ الْوَلَدِ»؟ قَالَ شُرَيْحٌ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَمُسْلِمٌ قَالَ «فَأَيُّهُمْ أَكْبَرُ»؟ قَالَ شُرَيْحٌ قَالَ «فَأَنْتَ أَبُو شُرَيْحٍ» فَدَعَا لَهُ وَلِوَلَدِهِ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ الْقَوْمُ الرُّجُوعَ إِلَى بِلَادِهِمْ أَعْطَى كُلَّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ أَرْضًا حَيْثُ أَحَبَّ فِي بِلَادِهِ قَالَ أَبُو شُرَيْحٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ يُوجِبُ لِيَ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «طِيبُ الْكَلَامِ وَبَذْلُ السَّلَامِ وَإِطْعَامُ الطَّعَامِ»  

A man asked the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him): When aspect of Islam is best? He replied: that you should provide food and greet both those you know and those you do not know. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5194)  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الْإِسْلَامِ خَيْرٌ؟ قَالَ «تُطْعِمُ الطَّعَامَ وَتَقْرَأُ السَّلَامَ عَلَى مَنْ عَرَفْتَ وَمَنْ لَمْ تَعْرِفْ»  

He who believes in Allah and in the last day should honour his guest; he who believes in Allah and in the last day should not harm his neighbor; he who believes in Allah and in the last day should speak good or keep silence. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5154)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيُكْرِمْ ضَيْفَهُ وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلَا يُؤْذِي جَارَهُ وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيَقُلْ خَيْرًا أَوْ لِيَسْكُتْ»  

"Worship the Most Merciful and spread (the greeting of) peace.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3694)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اعْبُدُوا الرَّحْمَنَ وَأَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ وَأَطْعِمُوا الطَّعَامَ تَدْخُلُوا الْجِنَانَ»  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform me about something that if I do it or act upon it, I will enter Paradise." He said, "Spread peace, feed others, maintain family ties, and pray at night while people are asleep, and you will enter Paradise in peace."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ إِذَا عَمِلْتُهُ أَوْ عَمِلْتُ بِهِ دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «أَفْشِ السَّلَامَ وَأَطْعِمِ الطَّعَامَ وَصِلِ الْأَرْحَامَ وَقُمْ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّاسُ نِيَامٌ تَدْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ بِسَلَامٍ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ he said: "Indeed, in Paradise there are rooms whose exterior can be seen from within and whose interior can be seen from the outside. Allah has prepared them for those who feed food to others, spread peace, and pray at night whilst people are asleep."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ غُرَفًا يُرَى ظَاهِرُهَا مِنْ بَاطِنِهَا وَبَاطِنُهَا مِنْ ظَاهِرِهَا أَعَدَّهَا اللَّهُ لِمَنْ أَطْعَمَ الطَّعَامَ وَأَفْشَى السَّلَامَ وَصَلَّى بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّاسُ نِيَامٌ»
