Bayhaqi 5848 — Those who held that one returns the salam and responds

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي وَغَيْرُهُ، قَالُوا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ إِبْرَاهِيمُ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِذَا عَطَسَ الرَّجُلُ وَالْإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَيُشَمَّتُ " وَهَذَا مُرْسَلٌ وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ مِنْ قَوْلِهِ، وَعَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فِي رَدِّ السَّلَامِ، وَعَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ فِي تَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ وَرَدِّ السَّلَامِ وَرُوِيَ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ كَرِهَهُ، وَيُذْكَرُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي السَّلَامِ: يَرُدُّ فِي نَفْسِهِ، وَسُئِلَ عَنِ التَّشْمِيتِ فَنَهَى عَنْهُ، وَعَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ فِي السَّلَامِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَرُدُّ إِيمَاءً وَلَا يَتَكَلَّمُ ".
(a) Al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a man sneezes while the imam is delivering the sermon on Friday, respond to him."
This is mursal.
(b) This is also narrated from al-Hasan as his own statement; from Salim bin Abdullah regarding returning the greeting of salam; and from Ibrahim al-Nakha'i regarding responding to the sneezer and returning the salam, and it is also narrated from him that he disliked it. It is mentioned that Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said regarding the salam: "He should return it within himself," and when he was asked about responding to the sneezer, he forbade it. And Ibn Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him), regarding the salam, used to return it by gesture and would not speak.
