Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5188 — he related: We used to greet the Messenger
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِ النَّجَاشِيِّ سَلَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْنَا ، فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، كُنَّا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَتَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ فِي الصَّلَاةِ لَشُغْلًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he related: "We used to greet the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam while he was in prayer and he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to respond to us. But when we returned from the Negus (from the migration to Abyssinia), we greeted him (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam but he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not respond to us. So we said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! We used to greet you with salam in prayer and you used to respond to us." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed in prayer (a servant) is fully occupied (with the remembrance of Allah and intimate conversation with Him).""
