Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْكَلْبِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَاعِدًا فِي أَصْحَابِهِ إِذْ مَرَّ بِهِمْ يَهُودِيٌّ فَسَلَّمَ فَلَمَّا مَضَى دَعَاهُ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ قُلْتَ قَالَ قُلْتُ سَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فَقُولُوا عَلَيْكُمْ أَيْ مَا قُلْتُمْ.
English Translation
Suwayd ibn 'Amr al-Kalbi told us, Aban told us, from Qatadah, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: While the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, was sitting among his companions, a Jew passed by them and gave the greeting of peace. When he had gone, he called him and said: "What did you say?" He said: "I said: Death be upon you." The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When any of the People of the Book greets you, say: 'And upon you,' meaning whatever you said."
