The ruling on a disbeliever initiating the salam to one who resides in the lands of disbelief
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: We are from the lands of the disbelievers, so is it permissible for us to initiate the greeting to them?
Answer:
No. If they initiate it to you, you respond to them. You respond to them with the same wording, and you do not add to "peace be upon you." You say, "And upon you," yes.
