Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What are the rights of a non-Muslim neighbor? And is it obligatory for me to greet him with the salam, or to visit him in his home?
Answer:
As for greeting him, do not initiate the salam to him. As for visiting, yes, visit him, because this is part of the rights of a neighbor over his neighbor: you visit him and invite him to Islam, so that perhaps he will submit.
