حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ قُرَّةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَذْفُ السَّلَامِ سُنَّةٌ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1004
Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet ﷺ said: Shortening the salutation is sunnah (commendable). The narrator 'Isa said: Ibn al-Mubarak prohibited me from reporting this tradition as a statement of the Prophet ﷺ. Abu Dawud said: I heard Abu Umar 'Isa bin Yunus al-Fakhuri al-Ramil saying: When al-Firyabi returned from Makkah, he gave up narrating this tradition as a statement of the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Ahmad bin Hanbal forbade to report this tradition directly from the Prophet ﷺ.
