(V.4:86) How the Salâm (greeting) began.
Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllâhu 'anhu]: The Prophet [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam] said, "Allâh created Adam in His Image,* sixty cubits (about 30 metres) in height. When He created him, He said (to him), 'Go and greet that group of angels sitting there, and listen what they will say in reply to you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring.' Adam (went and) said, 'As-Salâmu 'Alaikum (peace be upon you).' They replied, 'As-Salâmu 'Alaikum wa Rahmatullah (Peace and Allâh's Mercy be on you).' So they increased 'wa Rahmatullah.' " The Prophet [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam] added, "So, whoever will enter Paradise, will be of the shape and picture of Adam. Since then the creation (of Adam's offspring) (i.e. stature of human beings) is being diminished continuously up to the present time."
[Sahih Al-Bukhâri, 8/6227 (O.P.246)]
[6:54] When those who believe in Our Ayât come to you, say: "Salâmun 'Alaikum" (peace be on you); your Lord has written (prescribed) Mercy for Himself, so that if any of you does evil in ignorance, and thereafter repents and does righteous good deeds (by obeying Allâh), then surely, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
[4:86] When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or (at least) return it equally. Certainly, Allâh is Ever a Careful Account Taker of all things.
[24:61] But when you enter the houses, greet one another with a greeting from Allâh (i.e. say: As-Salâmu 'Alaikum wa Rahmatullâhi wa Barakâtuhu – peace be on you and Allâh's Mercy and His Blessings), blessed and good.
Sayyidina Abu Huraira (RA) reported on the authority of the Prophet (SAW) that salaam should be offered by the rider to the pedestrian, the pedestrian to the one who is seated, and a fewer number to a larger group. And, Ibn Muthanna added in his hadith: And the young should salute the old.
[Tirmidhi: 2712, Ahmed 10630, Bukhari 6231, Muslim 2160, Abu Dawud 5198]
Sayyidina Abu Huraira (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, “Let the young give salaam to the old, the passer-by to the seated and the few to the many.” [Tirmidhi: 2713]
Sayyidina Fardalah ibn Ubaid (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Salaam is offered by the horse-rider to one who is on foot, and by the pedestrian to one who is standing, and by a smaller number to a larger number.”
[Tirmidhi: 2714 , Ahmed 23990, Bukhari 996]
Sayyidina AbuUmamah (RA) reported that someone submitted. “O Messenger of Allah (SAW) when two people meet, which of them must take the initative in greeting with salaam”? He said, “He who is nearer to Allah (must take precedence).’ [Tirmidhi: 2703]
Abdullah ibn Umar ibn Al-Khattab, the son of Umar ibn Al-Khattab (radiAllahu anhu) loved conveying salam (peace) to people.
He had seen the Beloved Prophet saying salam to eveybody, young and old, rich or poor. he said salam even to children playing in the way.
Abdullah (ra) loved the prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) very much,and loved to do exactly ) what the blessed Prophet did himself. So he also conveyed his salaams to everyone he met.
Abdullah (ra) began going to the market everyday, around all the different bazaars, where other Muslims were selling different things. But even though Abdullah ibn Al-Khattab (ra) was going every day, he wasn't buying anything.What was he doing, going to the market every day?
Abdullah (ra) was conveying his salaams! He greeted the shopkeepers, and the men in the street. He greeted people sitting down, and people standing. He greeted any person he met, high and low.
Someone noticed this too, and asked Abdullah why he would go to the market everyday, but not buy anything, "You come daily to the bazaar without fail, but you never buy, sell, or bargain anything. You don't wander in and around in the shops, or idly chat with shopkeepers. Instead,you always pass by the bazaar and go away again, stopping anywhere. Why do you do this?"
"I come to the bazaar to offer salaam to the people!," replied Abdullah (ra), "Not for shopping."
When you are greeted with a greeting, you greet with one better than it, or return it"
〰[Surah Nisa, 4: 86]
'The riding person should greet the walking one, and the walking person should greet the sitting one, and the small group greets the bigger group, and the young greet the old'

The Student of Knowledge and Humbleness
Shaykh Muḥammad Ibn Salih al-‘Uthaymin rahimahullah stated:
“Some students of knowledge today are rougher than the Bedouin, they don’t have amiable dispositions, or give the Salam nor (do they posses) humility.

Furthermore, there are
some people who as they increase in knowledge, they increase in
arrogance, and we seek refuge in Allah from this.
The real scholar is the one who as he increase in knowledge, he (likewise) increases in humbleness.
