ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me on an errand, then I came back to him while he was facing the east or the west. I greeted him with salam and he gestured to me. Then when he finished he called me and said: "O Jabir!" So I came and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I greeted you with Salam but you did not answer." He said: 'I was praying.' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1190)   

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَبْعَثًا فَوَجَدْتُهُ يَسِيرُ مُشْرِقًا وَمُغْرِبًا فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ فَانْصَرَفْتُ فَنَادَانِي «يَا جَابِرُ» فَنَادَانِي النَّاسُ يَا جَابِرُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْكَ فَلَمْ تَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ قَالَ «ذَاكَ أَنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي»
