Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on shaking hands with the worshippers immediately after the obligatory prayer?

Answer:
Making this a habit is not permissible; it is considered a religious innovation (bid'ah). However, if one does it a few times, or if he has not seen a person and greets him, there is no harm. Yes.
