Question:
What is the ruling on bowing the head as a greeting?
Answer:
This is not permissible. It is ruku' (bowing), and it is not permissible to bow to anyone, whoever he may be, because this is a bowing of submission that is not permissible for a created being. One only bows to Allah and prostrates to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
