38. It was narrated from Al-Muhājir bin Qunfudh that he greeted the Prophet ﷺ with Salām while he was urinating, and he did not return the greeting until he had performed Wudû'. When he had performed Wudû' he returned the greeting. (Da'if)

Arabic text

٣٨ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ‌سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنِ ‌الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ ‌حُضَيْنٍ أَبِي سَاسَانَ ، عَنِ ‌الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ قُنْفُذٍ «أَنَّهُ سَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَبُولُ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَوَضَّأَ، فَلَمَّا تَوَضَّأَ رَدَّ عَلَيْهِ».

Commentary

Though it is not appropriate to greet a person when he is urinating, if greetings are extended to him by mistake, he may return the greetings upon completing the act of urinating.
