Hadith 1445

Abu Hurairah (RAA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (P.B.U.H.) said, “Do not initiate the saluting of Jews and Christians (when you meet them), and if you meet any of them on the road, force him to go to the narrowest part of the road (i.e. do not give way for them to pass, but keep going).
