312. It was narrated from 'Umair the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbās that he heard him say: "Abdullāh bin Yasār the freed slave of Maimūnah, and I came and entered upon Abū Juhaīm bin Al-Ḥārith bin Al-Ṣammah Al-Anṣārī. Abū Juhaīm said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came back from the direction of Bi'r Al-Jamal and was met by a man who greeted him with Salām, but the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not return the
greeting until he turned to the wall and wiped his face and hands, then he returned the greeting.” (Sahih)
