Falling into Bid'ah via Shaking of Hands?? Yes! says Shaykh al-Albaanee

al-Albaanee:

"To greet everyone in the sitting and shake hands (With them) lacks evidence in the Sunnah. It is an innovation (I.e. to go around the ring shaking hands). The prophet used to greet once and sit down where the gathering ends"

(Silsilat-ul-Hudaa wan-Noor 341)
