ʿAisha said, "The Jews came to the Prophet ﷺ and said to him, "As-Samu 'Alaika (i.e., Death be upon you)." He replied, 'The same on you.' " ʿAisha said to them, "Death be upon you, and may Allah curse you and shower His wrath upon you!" Messenger of Allah ﷺ I said, "Be gentle and calm, O ʿAisha! Be gentle and beware of being harsh and of saying evil things." She said, "Didn't you hear what they said?" He said, "Didn't you hear what I replied (to them)? have returned their statement to them, and my invocation against them will be accepted but theirs against me will not be accepted."  

أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ أَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ وَعَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَعَنَكُمُ اللَّهُ وَغَضِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَهْلاً يَا عَائِشَةُ عَلَيْكِ بِالرِّفْقِ وَإِيَّاكِ وَالْعُنْفَ أَوِ الْفُحْشَ قَالَتْ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا قَالَ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعِي مَا قُلْتُ رَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيُسْتَجَابُ لِي فِيهِمْ وَلاَ يُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ فِيَّ  

ʿAisha said that the Jews came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "As-Samu 'Alaikum" (death be on you). ʿAisha said (to them), "(Death) be on you, and may Allah curse you and shower His wrath upon you!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Be calm, O ʿAisha ! You should be kind and lenient, and beware of harshness and Fuhsh (i.e. bad words)." She said (to the Prophet), "Haven't you heard what they (Jews) have said?" He said, "Haven't you heard what I have said (to them)? I said the same to them, and my invocation against them will be accepted while theirs against me will be rejected (by Allah). "  

أَنَّ يَهُودَ أَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَعَنَكُمُ اللَّهُ وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ قَالَ مَهْلاً يَا عَائِشَةُ عَلَيْكِ بِالرِّفْقِ وَإِيَّاكِ وَالْعُنْفَ وَالْفُحْشَ قَالَتْ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا قَالَ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعِي مَا قُلْتُ رَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيُسْتَجَابُ لِي فِيهِمْ وَلاَ يُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ فِيَّ  

As-Sam-u-'Alaikum. A'isha said in response: As-Sam-u-'Alaikum (death be upon you) and curse also, whereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'A'isha, verily Allah loves kindness in every matter. She said: Did you bear what they said? Thereupon he said: Did you not hear that I said (to them): Wa 'Alaikum.  

قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَهْطٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ بَلْ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّامُ وَاللَّعْنَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ فِي الأَمْرِ كُلِّهِ قَالَتْ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا قَالَ قَدْ قُلْتُ وَعَلَيْكُمْ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came across some people from the Jewish community and they greeted him by saying, "As-Salamu 'Alaikum, O Aba Al-Qasim." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Wa 'Alaikum." Aisha then said to them, "May the curse and disgrace be upon you." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Aisha, "O Aisha, do not use foul language." She then said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you not hear what they said? They greeted you with 'As-Salamu 'Alaik.' " The Prophet ﷺ asked her, "Did I not respond to them by saying 'Wa 'Alaikum'?" I said to them what they said to me. Ibn Numair reported that in his narration of the incident, Aisha said, "Indeed, Allah dislikes vulgarity and indecency." Ibn Numair also reported in his narration that this verse was revealed: "And when they come to you, they greet you with a greeting from which Allah has not greeted you." And it continued until it was completed.  

أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَقَالُواالسَّامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ فَقَالَ وَعَلَيْكُمْ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّامُ وَالذَّامُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا عَائِشَةُ لَا تَكُونِي فَحَّاشَةً قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمَا سَمِعْتَ مَا قَالُوا؟ السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ رَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ الَّذِي قَالُوا؟ قُلْتُ وَعَلَيْكُمْ قَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ يَعْنِي فِي حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَا يُحِبُّ الْفُحْشَ وَلَا التَّفَحُّشَ وَقَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَإِذَا جَاءُوكَ حَيَّوْكَ بِمَا لَمْ يُحَيِّكَ بِهِ اللهُ} حَتَّى فَرَغَ  

As-Sam-u-'Alaikum. A'isha said in response: As-Sam-u-'Alaikum (death be upon you) and curse also, whereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'A'isha, verily Allah loves kindness in every matter. She said: Did you bear what they said? Thereupon he said: Did you not hear that I said (to them): Wa 'Alaikum. (Using translation from Muslim 2165a)   

دَخَلَ رَهْطٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «عَلَيْكُمْ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَفَهِمْتُهَا فَقُلْتُ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّامُ وَاللَّعْنَةُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَهْلًا يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ فِي الْأَمْرِ كُلِّهِ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا؟ قَالَ «قَدْ قُلْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ»  

(the wife of the Prophet) A group of Jews entered upon the Prophet ﷺ and said, "As-Samu-Alaikum." (i.e. death be upon you). I understood it and said, "Wa-Alaikum As-Samu wal-la'n. (death and the curse of Allah be Upon you)." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said "Be calm, O ʿAisha! Allah loves that on, should be kind and lenient in all matters." I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Haven't you heard what they (the Jews) have said?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ said "I have (already) said (to them) "And upon you ! " (Using translation from Bukhārī 6024)   

أَنَّ رَهْطًا مِنَ الْيَهُودِ دَخَلُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «عَلَيْكُمْ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ بَلْ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّامُ وَاللَّعْنَةُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللهَ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ فِي الْأَمْرِ كُلِّهِ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ
