Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If someone greets you and extends his hand to you during the Friday sermon, is it permissible for you to extend your hand to him without speaking?

Answer:
No, this is a movement, and movement is not permissible while the imam is delivering the sermon.
Whoever smoothes the pebbles, then he hasمن مس الحصى فقد
Sunan Ibn Majah 1025Sahih (Darussalam)
This is like touching pebbles; it is a movement. Do not move while listening to the sermon, and do not speak.
