حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ : أَنْ يَهُودِيًّا مَرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، وَهُوَ مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ أَوْ قَالَ : وَمَعَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَتَدْرُونَ مَا قَالَ ؟ قَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : رُدُّوهُ عَلَيَّ ، قَالَ : قُلْتَ : سَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِذَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ ، فَقُولُوا : وَعَلَيْكُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Jew passed by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting with his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). The man (outwardly) gave a greeting, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the Companions: "Do you know what he said?" They said: "No." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Call him back to me." When he came, he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "Did you say 'As-samu alaykum' (May death befall you)?" He admitted it and said: "Yes." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the People of the Book greet you, say in reply: 'Wa alaykum' (And upon you too)."
