Musnad of Jundub bin Abdullah al-Bajali
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1531 — the command in the saying of Allah Almighty
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ نُوحٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، " {وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُمْ بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّوا بِأَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا} [النساء: 86] لِأَهْلِ الْإِسْلَامِ {أَوْ رُدُّوهَا} [النساء: 86] عَلَى أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ "
It is narrated from al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) that the command in the saying of Allah Almighty, "And when you are greeted with a prayer (through salam), respond with something better (in manner) than it," is for the people of Islam, while the command "or return it (in the same way)" is for the polytheists.
