What is the manner of greeting the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when visiting Madinah, and his two companions Abu Bakr and 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both)?
Answer:
The manner is as Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did: he would stand facing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and say, "Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings." Then he would move back slightly toward the east and say, "Peace be upon you, O Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings." Then he would move back slightly toward the east and say, "Peace be upon you, O 'Umar al-Faruq, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings." Then he would leave. Yes.
