حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي الرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :" هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ "

Abu Nu`aym told us, Abdul Aziz bin Omar bin Abdul Aziz told us, on the authority of Abdullah bin Mawhib, he said: I heard Tamim al-Dari, He says: I asked the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and I said: O Messenger of God, what is the Sunnah regarding a man from the people of disbelief greeting him at the hands of a man from among the disbelievers? Muslims? Then the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “He is the most deserving of people in his life and death.”
