English translation
1222. It was narrated that Ibn Ma'sûd said: "We used to greet the Prophet ﷺ with Salâm and he would return our Salâm, until we came back from the land of Ethiopia. I greeted him with Salâm and he did not return my greeting, and I started to wonder why. So I sat down; when he finished praying, he said: 'Allâh decrees what He wills, and He has decreed that we should not speak during the prayer.'" (Hasan)
