Greeting Someone During the Prayer

A concise answer from Shaykh Ṣāliḥ al-Fawzān explaining the ruling on greeting a person while he is praying. He clarifies that there is no issue with greeting such a person, and that the one praying should respond by making a hand gesture.

Questioner:

What is the ruling on greeting a person while he is performing the prayer and how does he return the greeting when he is greeted?

There is no problem regarding this, he replies by way of gesturing his hand.
