Concluding the prayer

Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa'd al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give the salam in the prayer to his right and to his left, until we could see the whiteness of his cheeks.
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, about whom there is criticism.

Sayyiduna Talq bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give the salam to his right and to his left, until we could see the whiteness of his right cheek and the whiteness of his left cheek.
Ahmad and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

A Bedouin narrated from his father that he prayed behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the salam to the right and to the left (on both sides).
Ahmad recorded it, and its chain contains a narrator who has not been named.

Bistam narrated from a Bedouin who stayed with them as a guest that this Bedouin had prayed behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the salam twice (that is, on both sides).
Ahmad recorded it. This narrator named Bistam is Bistam bin al-Nadr; Ustadh Jamal al-Din al-Mizzi mentioned him thus in the biography of his student Amr bin Farrukh. Al-Sharif al-Husayni thought that he was perhaps Bistam bin Muslim, so he did not mention him; and Allah knows best. The remaining narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy). Ibn Hibban mentioned Bistam bin al-Nadr in the book al-Thiqat, and he mentioned this narration of his from the Bedouin just as it is mentioned here.

Wasi' bin Habban narrates that he was standing in the mosque, praying. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar was in front of him, leaning his back against the qiblah wall of the mosque. When Wasi' finished the prayer, he got up from his left side, went to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar and sat down with him. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar asked him: "Why did you not get up from your right side?" He replied: "Because I had seen you, so I got up and came to you." Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar said: "You have done well. Some people say: 'When you pray and then get up, get up from your right side.'" Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar said: "When you pray and are about to get up, then if you wish, get up from the right side, and if you wish from the left side, get up from that side."
Abu Ya'la recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to begin the recitation (aloud) with 'Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil-'alamin' (All praise is for Allah, the Lord of the worlds), and they used to give the salam once. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Part of it is mentioned in the Sahih.
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, mentioning the single salam; the narrators of this narration are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Ammar bin Yasir narrates: When giving the salam to the right and to the left, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: 'Al-salamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullah, al-salamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullah' (Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah; peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Abu Bakr bin Ayyash, who narrated it from the people of Kufah; he is da'if (weak) in what he narrates from people other than those of his own city. The remaining narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give the salam twice (that is, on both sides).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Baqiyyah, who is thiqah (trustworthy) and a mudallis (one who practises tadlis), and he has narrated it as a mu'an'an narration (using 'from').

Sayyiduna Abu Rimthah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I was present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he prayed; he gave the salam to the right and gave the salam to the left, until we saw the brightness of his cheek.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Minhal bin Khalifah, whom Ibn Ma'in, Imam al-Nasa'i (may Allah have mercy on him) and Imam Ibn Hibban (may Allah have mercy on him) declared da'if (weak), while Abu Hatim declared him thiqah (trustworthy). Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) says: He is salih (acceptable), but there is room for consideration regarding him.

Abbas bin Sahl bin Sa'd narrates that he was present in a gathering in which his father was present, as were Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Abu Usayd and Sayyiduna Abu Humayd. They discussed the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and they also mentioned that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give the salam to the right and to the left. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: The hadith narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Humayd is mentioned in the Sahih.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and its narrators have been declared trustworthy.

Sayyiduna Aws bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We stayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for half a month. I saw him (after praying) turning away from his right side, and I also saw him turning away from his left side; and I saw that his sandals had two straps.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and its narrators have been declared trustworthy; even so, there is disagreement about some of its narrators.

Sayyiduna Asma' bin Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (after finishing the prayer) getting up from his left side and going to his house.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains al-Haytham bin Adi, who is da'if (weak) and has been accused of lying.

Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the salam towards us in the prayer, we would say: 'Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh' (And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains Ibrahim bin al-Mukhtar, whom Imam Abu Dawud and Abu Hatim declared thiqah (trustworthy), while Yahya bin Ma'in says: He is not of that standard. The remaining narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I prayed behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); as soon as he gave the salam, he stood up. Then I prayed behind Sayyiduna Abu Bakr; when he gave the salam, he got up at once, as though he were sitting on a burning coal.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains Abdullah bin Farrukh. Ibrahim al-Juzajani says: His narrations are munkar (rejected). Ibn Abi Maryam says: To me he is the most pleasing man on the face of the earth. Ibn Hibban declared him thiqah (trustworthy) and says: He sometimes narrates contrary to (other narrators). The remaining narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the imam gives the salam and a man has some need, he should not wait for the imam to turn his face towards the people after giving the salam, because the prayer ends with giving the salam. It was the practice of Sayyiduna Abdullah that when he gave the salam, he would get up at once, or change his place, or turn his face towards the people.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Ghalib bin Farqad narrates: When giving the salam to the right and to the left, Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: 'Al-salamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullah' (Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah). (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: In the Sahih there is a marfu' hadith (attributed to the Prophet) narrated from him, other than this one.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. I have not found anyone who has given the biography of the narrator named Ghalib.
