Hadith 8248
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى تُؤْمِنُوا وَلَا تُؤْمِنُوا حَتَّى تَحَابُّوا ثُمَّ قَالَ هَلْ أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ إِذَا فَعَلْتُمُوهُ تَحَابَبْتُمْ أَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ بَيْنَكُمْ
Syedna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By Him in Whose hand is my soul! You will not enter Paradise until you have faith, and you will not have faith until you love one another. Shall I not tell you something which, if you do it, you will love one another? Spread the greeting of peace among yourselves.

Sayyiduna Bara’ bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Spread salam (greetings of peace) generally, you will remain safe; giving preference to only some people (for meeting and greeting) is the worst thing.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) arrived in Madinah Munawwarah, people rushed towards him, and I was among them.

Then the first thing I heard from him was this: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Spread peace, feed others, maintain ties of kinship, and pray at night when people are asleep; you will enter Paradise in peace.
Hadith 8252
عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَبَّ إِلَيْكُمْ دَاءُ الْأُمَمِ قَبْلَكُمْ الْحَسَدُ وَالْبَغْضَاءُ وَالْبَغْضَاءُ هِيَ الْحَالِقَةُ حَالِقَةُ الدِّينِ لَا حَالِقَةُ الشَّعَرِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَا تُؤْمِنُوا حَتَّى تَحَابُّوا أَفَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ إِذَا فَعَلْتُمُوهُ تَحَابَبْتُمْ أَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ بَيْنَكُمْ
Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The disease of the previous nations will spread among you, and that disease is envy and malice. It is something that shaves off the religion; it does not shave off hair (rather, it destroys the religion). By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! You cannot be true believers until you love one another. Shall I not tell you something which, if you do it, you will love one another? Spread salam (greetings of peace) among yourselves.
