Sunan an-Nasai 1324 (Book 13, Hadith 146) #15932
Greeting with Peace and Mercy

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ used to greet people with peace and mercy on both sides until his face became visible.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah that: The Prophet used to say salam to his right and to his left: As-salamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullah, as-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah (peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah, peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah) until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen from here, and the whiteness of his cheek from here.
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ ‏ "‏ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ خَدِّهِ مِنْ هَا هُنَا وَبَيَاضُ خَدِّهِ مِنْ هَا هُنَا

QUICK LESSONS:
Greet people with peace & mercy

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of greeting others with peace and mercy. It was narrated from 'Abdullah that the Prophet used to say salam to his right and left side until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen from here, and the whiteness of his cheek from here. This shows how much emphasis he put on greeting others in a peaceful manner. He wanted everyone around him to feel welcomed and respected by being greeted in this way. The Prophet's example teaches us that we should always strive to greet each other with peace and mercy no matter who they are or where they come from. We should also remember that our words have power so it is important for us to use them wisely when interacting with others.
