Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. Is it the Sunnah to embrace the one arriving from a journey and to shake hands with the one who is not?

Answer:
Yes, that is so. Shaking hands is for the one who is not arriving from a journey, and embracing is for the one arriving from a journey. Yes.
