The Ruling on Greeting the Arrival of the Month of Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And we invite the Honorable Shaykh for this question. The questioner says: "Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. Regarding the ruling on people greeting one another on the occasion of the arrival of the month of Ramadan, and if it is permissible, what is the form of this greeting?"
Answer:
There is no harm in greeting one another on the occasions of good, such as the month of Ramadan. And some scholars took the permissibility or the prescription of greeting in Ramadan from the hadith of Salman (may Allah be pleased with him), in which it is said: "Have you not been lost, O people? Have you not been lost? A great and blessed month has come." They said: So this hadith is the basis for greeting the arrival of the month of Ramadan. So whoever does that, there is no harm. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
