Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is it permissible to write "With my sincere regards," or is sincere greeting reserved for Allah alone?
Answer:
I do not know of anything that prevents one from saying "With my sincere regards" to you, but this is not considered a salam, nor is it considered a response to the salam. The salam is conveyed by its specific wording: "As-salamu alaykum" or "Salamu alaykum."
