Quiz 82 – What is the proper greeting Muslims exchange with each other?

Correct Answer is :

A) As-salamu alaykum

Description:

The greeting “As-salamu alaykum” means “Peace be upon you” and is a Sunnah that fosters goodwill and brotherhood among Muslims.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
“You will not enter Paradise until you believe, and you will not believe until you love one another. Shall I not guide you to something which, if you do, you will love one another? Spread salaam (peace) among you.” (Riyad as-Salihin 378).

Responding with “Wa alaykum as-salam” is also an obligatory courtesy in Islam.
