…..Benefits of greeting a Muslim….
Except Islam there is no other religion in world which has a
beautiful and a meaningful way of greeting each other.
A sahabi came to Masjid-e-Nabavi and greeted Prophet Muhammad
Mustafa Sallallahu alaihi wasallam “As salaamu alaikum”, Prophet
Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied the greeting and said this person
is entitled of 10 rewards. Next came a Sahabi who greeted Prophet Muhammad
Sallallahu alaihi wasallam “As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah”, Prophet
Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied and said this person is entitled of
20 rewards. Another Sahabi entered and greeted “As salaamu alaikum wa
rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu”, Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi
wasallam replied and said this person is entitled of 30 rewards.
In another narration a sahabi entered the
Masjid-e-Nabavi and greeted Prophet Muhammad Mustafa Sallallahu alaihi wasallam
“As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu wa Mughfiratuhu”, Prophet
Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied and said this person is entitled of
40 rewards.
Some narrations state that Sahaba e Ikram frequently visited the
Market place not to shop instead only to greet other Muslims and gain the
rewards.

Greetings for Non- Muslims :
Muslims are not supposed to greet the non-Muslims but when they
greet us then the response to a Non-Muslim should be “Hadakallah”
meaning “May Allah Subhanahutaala show you the right path”.
Greetings to be avoided :
It is noticed nowadays people frequently use words like Saam
alaikum, walaikum as saam, etc… Let’s see what does these greeting actually
mean.
It is mentioned in of the narrations of Bukhari Sharif
that Black Seeds(Kalonji) has the cure for all ailments except Saam.
Sahaba e Ikram asked Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam what
does Saam mean Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam
replied Saam means Death.

How much ever a person might be busy but when you greet another
Muslim or any person make sure you pronounce the words correctly because
instead of greeting someone your words would land up cursing the other person.
“As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu”
is the most recommended greeting by the Ulama e Ikram.
Imagine if a Person greets at least 10 people with the above
greeting in a day he is entitled for 300 rewards/day. He is getting this reward
without wasting his time energy or any hard work.
Insha-Allah let us try and greet as much as Muslims possible and
get rewarded by Allah Subhanahutaala.
Do remember the whole
Ummat e Muhammadiya in your prayers and pray for the Mughfirath of all.
