“As-Salaamu Alaikum” is a means of immense reward
A man passed by the Messenger of Allaah (Sal Allaahu Alaihi WaSallam) while he was sitting with others, and said “As-salaamu ‘alaykum.” The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaihi WaSallam) said, “[He will have] ten hasanat.” Another man passed by and said “As-Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullaah (peace be upon you and the mercy of Allaah).” The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaihi wa Sallam) said, “[He will have] twenty hasanaat.” Another man passed by and said “As-Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh (peace be upon you and the mercy of Allaah and His blessings).” The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaihi wa Sallam) said, “[He will have] thirty hasanaat.”
THE BEST GREETING THERE COULD EVER BE “ASSALAMU ALAIKUM”
>>> Did you wake up this morning and say “As-Salaamu Alaikum” to your spouse or your child ? Or did you greet them with a “Good Morning” or even a casual “hi” ?
Have we been teaching our children the importance of greeting each other with salaam ? Or when we see them off to school, do we send them off with a ‘bye’, instead of “As-Salaamu Alaikum”, the dua for peace and blessings?
For some of us, this may seem a minor issue. Or it may even be a ‘progressive’ issue. But, in our haste to ‘adapt’, we forget that saying “As-Salaamu Alaikum” is the best greeting there could ever be.
This was the practice and teaching of Prophet Muhammad (Sal Allaahu Alaihi wa Sallam), the best example for mankind. And it was Allaah Himself that prescribed the manner of greeting among Muslims as “As-Salaamu Alaikum” [not ‘salaams’ or ‘good morning’ or ‘hey’ or ‘hi’ or whatever]
“When those who believe in Our Ayaat (proofs, verses, signs, etc.) come to you, say: “Salaamun Alaikum” (peace be on you)..…” (Surah al-An‘aam:54)
