Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَسْجِدَ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ مَسْجِدَ قُبَاءَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ فَدَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ رِجَالُ الْأَنْصَارِ يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِ وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ صُهَيْبٌ فَسَأَلْتُ صُهَيْبًا كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْنَعُ إِذَا سُلِّمَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ يُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ قُلْتُ لِرَجُلٍ سَلْ زَيْدًا أَسَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَهِبْتُ أَنَا أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا أُسَامَةَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ فَكَلَّمْتُهُ.
English Translation
Sufyan narrated to us, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, entered the mosque of Banu 'Amr ibn 'Awf, the mosque of Quba', to pray in it. Men of the Ansar came in to greet him with salam, and Suhayb came in with him. I asked Suhayb: "How did the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, act when greeted with salam?" He said: "He would gesture with his hand." Sufyan said: I said to a man, "Ask Zayd whether he heard it from 'Abdullah," for I was reluctant to ask him myself. So he said: "O Abu Usama, did you hear it from 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar?" He said: "As for me, I saw him and spoke with him."
