Sunan Ibn Majah 3702 (Book 33, Hadith 46) #33056
The Etiquette of Greeting Others

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised against bowing and embracing one another, but encouraged shaking hands with one another.

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "O Messenger of Allah! Should we bow to one another?" He said: "No". We said: "Should we embrace one another?" He said: "No, but shake hands with one another".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السَّدُوسِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيَنْحَنِي بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَا أَيُعَانِقُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ وَلَكِنْ تَصَافَحُوا

QUICK LESSONS:
Shake hands with each other
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from Anas bin Malik speaks to the importance of respecting others when greeting them. The Prophet Muhammad advised against bowing and embracing one another, as these are more intimate forms of greeting that should be reserved for close family members or friends. Instead, he encouraged shaking hands with one another as a sign of respect and friendship. This is an important lesson in etiquette that can be applied to all types of relationships, whether it is between family members or strangers. It teaches us to show respect for others by being mindful of how we greet them and how we interact with them in general.
