Arabic hadith text

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِبِلَالٍ: كَيْفَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِم حِين حانوا يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟ قَالَ: كَانَ يُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ النَّسَائِيِّ نَحوه وَعوض بِلَال صُهَيْب

Ibn ‘Umar reported: I asked Bilal, ‘How did the Prophet (peace be upon him) respond to people when they greeted him while he was praying?’ He said: ‘He would gesture with his hand.’ Al-Tirmidhi transmitted it. Nasa’i’s version is similar, but names Suhayb instead of Bilal.
