What is the correct way of performing salaam in salaah? Should one stop in the centre in between salaams, or continue without stopping? And after making that second salaam is it necessary to return back to the centre or not?

Answer

Continue without stopping.

No.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
