Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: I shook hands with a disbeliever, where the disbeliever was the one who initiated the handshake and extended his hand. Is there anything required of me in this?
Answer:
The hadith only came regarding speech: if he says "As-salamu alaykum," say "Wa alaykum." As for shaking hands, nothing has come regarding it. I do not know.
