Abu Hurairah, in the course of the hadith relating to the person who was at fault in performing his salat, states that he came up to the Holy Prophet and saluted him.

Sahl ibn Sa‘ad relates: There was a woman among us who would put beetroot in a kettle and add some ground barley and cook them together. When we returned from the Friday service we would greet her and she would offer it to us (Bokhari).
Jabir ibn Sulaim relates: I saw a man whose direction was obeyed by everyone; no one did other than that which he said. I asked: Who is he? I was told: He is the Messenger of Allah. I said twice: On you be peace, Messenger of Allah. He said: Do not say: On you be peace. This is the greeting of the dead. Say, instead: Peace be on you. I asked: Are you the Messenger of Allah? He answered: I am the Messenger of Allah, Who, when you are afflicted and call on Him, will remove your afflictions; Who, when you are afflicted with famine and call on Him, will cause food to grow for you; and Who, if you lose your mount in a barren and desert land and call on Him, will restore it to you. I said to him: Instruct me. He said: Do not revile any one. (Since then I have never abused anyone, neither a freeman, nor a slave, nor a camel, nor a goat). He continued: Do not disdain the doing of the least good; and talk to your brother with a cheerful face. That is part of goodness. Hold up your loincloth half way up to the knee, and at least above the ankles; for letting it down is prideful and contemptuous, and Allah dislikes pride. If someone charges you with defaults from which he thinks you suffer, do not charge him with defaults from which you think he suffers, for the penalty for his default will overtake him (Abu Daud and Tirmidhi).
