[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, a man greets me and then dies." He said, "You have more right to his life and death."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الرَّجُلُ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيَّ فَيَمُوتُ قَالَ «أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a man who greets another man with a handshake. He replied, "He is the most deserving of people to have his life and death preserved."
سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ فَقَالَ هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ
“I heard Tamim Ad- Dari say: ‘I said: O Messenger of Allah, what is the Sunnah concerning a man from among the People of the Book who becomes a Muslim at the hands of another man?’ He said: ‘He is the closest of all people to him in life and in death.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2752)
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي الرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟قَالَ هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ قَالَ «هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ»
[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, is it permissible for a polytheist to seek safety in the hands of a Muslim?" He replied, "He is more deserving of safety in his life and death."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ قَالَ «هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ»
