Muhammad bin Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) used to dislike shaking hands. The narrator said: I mentioned this to al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him), and he said: The Companions of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), whenever they met, would shake hands, and when they returned from a journey, they would embrace one another.
