Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، أَخْبَرَنِي سُهَيْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي إِلَى الشَّامِ، فَكَانَ أَهْلُ الشَّامِ يَمُرُّونَ بِأَهْلِ الصَّوَامِعِ فَيُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَسَمِعْتُ أَبِي، يَقُولُ:، ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: " لَا تَبْدَءُوهُمْ بِالسَّلَامِ، وَاضْطَرُّوهُمْ إِلَى أَضْيَقِهِ " (١)،

English translation

Sahl bin Abi Salih (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I set out towards Syria with my father. (I saw that) when the people of Syria passed by the people of a church, they would greet them with salam. On this occasion, I heard my father say that I heard Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate from the Prophet (ﷺ) that do not initiate greeting them with salam, and force them towards the narrowest part of the road.
