Arabic hadith text
عَنْ أَبِي مَدِينَةَ الدَّارِمِيِّ قَالَ: (كَانَ الرَّجُلانِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا الْتَقَيَا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا حَتَّى يَقْرَأَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى الآخَرِ: " وَالْعَصْرِ إِنَّ الإِنْسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ “، ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى الآخَرِ).
Translation
Abū Madīnah ad-Dārimī said: ‘When two men among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ met, they would not part until one of them recited to the other, “By time, indeed mankind is in loss,” and then one of them would greet the other with salām.’
