1/869 ــ عن أبي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «إذَا انتهىٰ أحَدُكُم إلَىٰ المَجْلس فَلْيُسَلِّمْ، فإذا أرَادَ أنْ يقومَ فَلْيُسلِّمْ، فَلَيْسَتِ الأولىٰ بأحقَّ منَ الآخرَة». رواه أبو داود، والترمذي وقال: حديث حسن.
869/1 - Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “When one of you arrives at a gathering, he should say the greeting of peace. When he wants to get up and leave, he should say the greeting of peace, for the former is not more important than the latter.” [Narrated by Abu Dāwūd and Al-Tirmidhi, who classified it as Hasan (sound)]
1) من كمال الشريعة أنها جعلت المبتدىٰ والمنتهىٰ عَلَىٰ حد سواء، وهذا من عدل الشريعة.
1) It is a sign of the perfection and justice of the Shariah that it made the first and last greetings equally important.
2) حثَّ الشارع عَلَىٰ كثرة الأجر والثواب بالسلام أولَ المجلس وآخرَه.
2) Our religion urges us to gain plenty of rewards by giving the greeting of peace at the beginning and end of gatherings.
السلام عند الانصراف من المجلس أدب نبوي متروك في كثير من المجالس، وأحقُّ من يقوم بإحيائه هم أهل العلم وطلَّابه، فينبغي لهم إذا دخلوا علىٰ المجالس أن يسلموا، وكذلك إذا خرجوا، فليست الأولىٰ بأحق من الأخرىٰ.
Giving the greeting of peace when leaving a gathering is a Prophetic etiquette that is commonly abandoned now. More than anyone else, the scholars and seekers of knowledge should work to revive it. As they enter a gathering or leave it, they should give the greeting of peace, for the former is not more important than the latter.
وكذا الرجل يوصَى إذا دخل علىٰ أهله أو خرج أن يسلم عليهم.
Also, when a man enters or leaves his house, he should greet his family.
فعن أنس رضي الله عنه قال: قال لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «يا بُني إذا دخلتَ على أهلكَ فسلِّم تكن بركة عليك وعلىٰ أهل بيتك». رواه الترمذي.
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: “O son, when you enter your house, give your family the greeting of peace, for it will be a blessing for you and your household.” [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi]
