Greeting with Handshake

15ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ أَيْمَنَ بْنِ مُحْرِزٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَا صَافَحَ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) رَجُلاً قَطُّ فَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَنْزِعُ يَدَهُ مِنْهُ.
15. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Isma’il ibn Mehran from Ayman ibn Muhriz from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “When shaking hands with people, the Messenger of Allah had never been the first to discontinue the handshake.”
