Actually, if I'm not mistaken, what you are referring to is a hadith in Tirmidhi wherein it was stated, when speaking of the good manners and character of the Rasul (peace be upon him), that he never withdrew his hand first from a handshake nor ever outstretched his feet in the direction of another.

Perhaps someone else can get the exact reference for us or, even better, an online link to the hadith in question?

^I believe I have found the Hadith you are thinking of:

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith - 1532

Narrated Anas ibn Malik

When Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) shook hands with a man he did not withdraw his hand till the other did so, he did not turn his face away till the other did so, and he was not seen to put forward his knees in front of one with whom he was sitting.

Tirmidhi transmitted it. http://www.alim.org/library/hadith/TIR/1532

200. Anas told that when Allah's messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) shook hands with a man, he did not withdraw his hand till the other did so, and he was not seen to put forward his knees in front of one with whom he was sitting.
(Tirmidhi).
(Sayings of Muhammad. by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad). http://foreninger.uio.no/mss/tr/hadith/hadith1.html

Can anyone speak to the authenticity of this particular Hadith? I know that Tirmidhi's Hadiths are generally regarded as authentic, but the reason I ask is because a similar narration appears in a different collection but lacks the last part about the knees of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him):
He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was always the first to greet another and would not withdraw his hand from a handshake till the other man withdrew his. If one wanted to say something in his ears, he would not turn away till one had finished as reported in the books of Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi may Allaah have mercy upon them. He did not like people to get up for him and used to say: "Let him, who likes people to stand up in his honor, he should seek a place in hell." [Abu Daawood]. http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/in...cles&id=136184

Is the aforementioned Hadith from Tirmidhi among the authentic Hadiths?

EDIT: Abu_Dahdah, I deleted the previous version of my post in order to write this version, but you must have quoted my previous post and responded to it before my deletion went through. Please feel free to re-edit your post with this revised version of my post. I apologize for the inconvenience.
