یَغفِرُ اللہُ لَنَا وَ لَکُم

May Allah forgive us and you.

*     اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه When two Muslims shake hands, any dua they make during this time will be accepted. Before separating their hands, the sins of them both will be forgiven.

*     Shaking hands removes hatred and enmity.

*     One can shake hands every time they meet.

*     Shaking hands with one hand is not Sunna; the Sunna is to shake hands with both hands.

*     Some people only make their fingers touch lightly; this is also not Sunna.

*     After shaking hands, it is makrūh (disliked) to kiss one’s own hand.^[1]

*     Islamic brothers who have the habit of kissing their own palm after shaking hands should avoid this practice.

*     The Sunna way of shaking hands is to have no cloth the hands. Both palms should directly touch each other.^[2]
