Is it prescribed to single out a scholar for a greeting?

The questioner : If you please, our Shaykh, I mean, a question regarding what you pointed out to us.

The Shaykh: Go ahead.

The questioner : Is it prescribed to single out the scholar for a greeting?

The Shaykh : I mean.

The questioner : One greets the assembly, then singles out the scholar for a greeting, and does not do so with everyone present, as we pointed out to you.

The Shaykh : Excuse me, what do you mean by the greeting?

The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.

Another questioner : A handshake, I mean?

Another questioner : No, it is not a handshake.

The Shaykh : It is not a handshake.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : I mean, for example, you want to say that the one who entered said, "Peace be upon you."

The questioner : Yes, exactly.

The Shaykh : Then he goes to the elder of the group.

The questioner : Yes, exactly.

The Shaykh : And says, "Peace be upon you."

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : We do not know this from the Sunnah.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh : And you.
