Nafi' narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out to Quba' and prayed there. The Ansar began coming to him and greeting him with salam while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying. I asked Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him): How did you see the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) reply to the greeting in prayer? He said: Like this, and he spread out his palm. Ja'far bin Awn spread out his palm, turning its inner side downwards and its back upwards.
