Returning Salam While Praying

Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān explains the ruling on greeting someone who is praying. He clarifies that there is no issue with greeting the praying person, and the one praying should respond by making a hand gesture rather than speaking.

Questioner:

What is the ruling on greeting the one praying and how does the one praying reply?

Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān

There is no problem in doing so. The one praying should respond with a hand gesture.
