297. Abū Hurairah narrated: “Ḥadhf the Salām is a Sunnah.” ‘Alī bin Ḥujr (one of the narrators) said: “[Abdullāh] Ibn Al-Mubārak (one of the narrators) said: ‘Meaning: To not elongate it too much.’” (Ḍa‘īf) Abū ‘Eisā said: This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ, and it is recommended according to the people of knowledge. It has been reported that Ibrāhīm An-Nakha‘ī said: “The Takbīr is Jazm cut and the Taslīm is cut.” As for Hiql (one of the narrators), they say he was the scribe of Al-Awzā‘ī.

Arabic text

٢٩٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ‌وَهِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، عَنِ ‌الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌قُرَّةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنِ ‌الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: «حَذْفُ» السَّلَامِ سُنَّةٌ. قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ: وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ: يَعْنِي أَنْ لَا تَمُدَّهُ مَدًّا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَهُوَ الَّذِي يَسْتَحِبُّهُ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ. وَرُوِيَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: التَّكْبِيرُ جَزْمٌ، وَالسَّلَامُ جَزْمٌ. وَهِقْلٌ يُقَالُ: كَانَ كَاتِبَ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ.

Commentary

Ḥadhf and Jazm: The salutation should not be prolonged, rather it should be fast and short. When a Companion says it is Sunnah, it means it is the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ.
