Hadith 1095
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ: إِذَا دَخَلْتَ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَيْهِمْ تَحِيَّةً مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ مُبَارَكَةً طَيْبَةً. قَالَ: مَا رَأَيْتُهُ إِلا يُوجِبُهُ قَوْلُهُ: ﴿وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُمْ بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّوا بِأَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا أَوْ رُدُّوهَا﴾ [النساء: 86].
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: When you go to your family, say «السلام» to them. This is a blessed and pure gift from Allah. Then he said: In my opinion, according to the command of Allah, «وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُمْ بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّوا بِأَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا أَوْ رُدُّوهَا» [سورہ النساء: 86] "When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it or (at least) return it in a like manner." it is obligatory to reply to the greeting.
