The ruling on greeting a group of people who are eating

Question:
He says: If a man passes by a group of people who are eating, should he greet them, because we have heard that it is not permissible?

Answer:
Yes, he should greet them. The one who said that he should not greet them was mistaken. He should greet them. If he comes to a group of people who are eating, or reading, or talking, he should greet them. He says: "Peace be upon you," or "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy," or "and Allah's mercy and blessings." It is not disliked; rather, it is prescribed, and they respond to him. Yes...

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
