وعن أبي جري الهجيمي رضي الله عنه قال: أتيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقلت: عليك السلام يا رسول الله قال:
"لا تقل عليك السلام؛ فإن عليك السلام تحية الموتى".
((رواه أبو داود، والترمذي وقال: حديث حسن صحيح. وقد سبق بطوله)).
Abu Juraiy Al-Hujaimi (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: "Alaikas-Salamu ya Rasulallah! (Upon you be peace, O Messenger of Allah)!" He said, "Do not say: 'Alaikas-Salamu (Upon you be peace).' This is the Salam to the dead.".
