And by this chain he said, ‘Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘If the people of Khyber want to meet you then do not initiate them with the Salaam’. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah -saww !
If they were to greet upon us, then what should we respond to them with?’ He -saww said: ‘And upon you’ (وَ عَلَيْكُمْ. Wa Alaykum)’’.
