kissing hands and legs

Abu Dawud Book 41 Hadith 5206 -Narrated al-Wazi’ ibn Zari’: Umm Aban, daughter of al-Wazi’ ibn Zari’, quoting his grandfather, who was a member of the deputation of AbdulQays, said: When we came to Medina, we raced to be first to dismount and KISS THE HAND AND FOOT of the Apostle of Allah(saws) But al-Mundhir al-Ashajj waited until he came to the bundle of his clothes. He put on his two garments and then he went to the Prophet (saws).

Burayda said: When we were with Allah’s Messenger on an expedition, a Bedouin came and asked for a miracle. The Prophet pointed at a tree and said to the Bedouin: “Tell that tree: Allah’s Messenger summons you.” The Beduin did, whereupon the tree swayed and brought itself out, and came to the presence of the Prophet saying: “Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah!” The Bedouin said: “Now let it return to its place!” When Allah’s Messenger ordered it, the tree went back. The Bedouin said: “let me prostrate to you!” The Messenger answered: “If I commanded anyone to do that, I would command the wife to prostrate to her husband.” The Bedouin said: “Then give me permission to kiss your hands and feet.” The Prophet gave him permission. Qadi `Iyad narrated it in al-Shifa’ (1:299) and al-Bazzar in his Musnad (3:49). both al-Hakim and al-`Iraqi declared its chain authentic (sahih),  Ibn Hajar included the hadith of Burayda among Ibn al-Muqri’s good narrations (min jayyidiha) on the subject of kissing the hand .Qadi `Iyad also mentions a similar narration from Ibn `Umar which Suyuti said was narrated by Darimi, Bayhaqi, and al-Bazzar with a sound chain.

Bukhari in al-Adab al-mufrad also relates with a sound chain that Suhayb the freedman of al-`Abbas saw Sayyidna`Ali kiss the hand and feet of the Prophet’s uncle al-`Abbas and said to him: “O Uncle! Be pleased with me.”  al-Muqri’ also narrates it through Sulayman ibn Ayyub and through a third chain from his shaykh al-Tahawi in al-Rukhsa fi taqbil al-yad (p. 73 #13, p. 76 #15).Ibn Hibban accepted him as trustworthy and al-Dhahabi did not contradict him, Sakhawi said in Fath al-mughith (p. 137): Daraqutni said: “One from whom two trustworthy narrators (thiqatan) take hadith, his state of “unknowness” (jahalatuhu) is lifted, and his credibility is established.”


Sayyidina Safwan ibn Assal al-Muradi reported that of two Jews one said to the other, “Come let us go to this Prophet that we may question him.” The other said, “Do not call him a Prophet, for, if he hears you say Prophet he will be overjoyed.’ So they came to him and asked him about the words of Allah the Exalted: “And certainly we gave Musa nine manifest signs.” (17/101 Shu’bah was unsure if this was included: And particularly for you, O Jews, that you do not contravene (the injunctions on) the Sabbath (Saturday). So, they kissed his hand and his feet, saying, “We bear testimony that you are a Prophet. He asked. ‘Then what prevents you from submitting (in Isaim)?” They said, ‘Dawood had prayed that Prophets should not cease to come in his offspring and we fear that if we submit the Jews will kill us.’trimdhi chapter 18, Hadith 3155,), (Book of Adab) who declared it hasan sahih Ahmed 18814,Narrated by Ibn Abi Shayba (Book of Adab, Chapter entitled A Man Kissing Another Man’s Hand When He greets Him, al-Nasa’i, who declared it sahih. Ibn Maja (Book of Adab), who declared it sahih. al-Hakim who declared it sahih.

Imam Muslim (d. 261) when he met Imam Bukhari (d. 256) said to him: Da`ni hatta uqabbila rijlayka ya ustadh al-ustadhayn, “Let me kiss your feet, O professor of the two professors.”It is narrated by al-Khatib in his Tarikh (13:102), al-Hakim in al-Tarikh ,Bayhaqi in al-Madkhal, Ibn Hajar in Hadi al-Sari (p. 488) and his Nukat (2:717-719), as well as al-Subki in the chapter of Bukhari in Tabaqat al-shafi`iyya,

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
