2692. Abū Hurairah narrated: "A man entered the Masjid and performed Ṣalāt while the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was sitting at the back of the Masjid. Then he came to greet him, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Wa 'Alaikum (and upon you); go back and pray for indeed you have not prayed.'" And he mentioned the Hadīth in its entirety. (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan. Yahya bin Sa'eed Al-Qaṭṭān reported this Hadīth from 'Ubaidullāh bin 'Umar from Sa'eed Al-Maqburī. So he said: "From his father, from Abū Hurairah." [And
he did not mention, "to greet him" in it and he said: 'And upon you.'] The narration of Yahyā bin Sa'eed is more correct.

Commentary
The version of Al-Bukhārī and Muslim is 'Wa 'Alaikas-Salām' which tells that the reply to salutation begins with 'Wa' (and). Saying Salām is Sunnah and answering it is compulsory.
