Initiating the Salam with Disbelievers When Calling Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a questioner says: Some people hold that not initiating the salam with disbelievers diminishes their response when calling them to Islam. He asks: Is there a flaw in this statement?

Answer:
Yes, indeed. One does not offer the salam to disbelievers.
Peace be upon whoever follows the guidance. To proceed:السلام على من اتبع الهدى، أما بعد
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2717Sahih (Darussalam)
Yes.
