Hadith 36

(The book) ‘Al Khisaal’ – Majaylawiya, from his uncle, from Haroun, from Ibn Sadaqah, ‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws father-asws having said: ‘Neither greet unto the Jew, nor unto the Christian, nor unto the Magian, nor an idol worshipper, nor until a table of wine drinkers, nor unto the players of chess and the dice, nor unto the effeminate, nor unto the poet who slanders the married women. Nor unto the one praying Salat, and that is because the one praying Salat is not able to respond to the greeting, because the greeting is a voluntary act from the Muslim while the responding to it is an obligation; and not upon consumer of the interest, nor unto a man sitting upon defecation, nor unto the one who is in the bathroom, nor unto the mischief maker, the one open with his mischief’’.
