The Shaykh : Yes, okay, that’s fine, let him finish.
The student:Sahih Muslim 54a.
The Shaykh : Well done, may Allah reward you, if you know it.
The student: I forgot it.
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah who reminded you. Good.Sunan Ibn Majah 3692Sahih (Darussalam) There is no complete faith unless the believers love one another and each loves the other, because without love, hearts cannot unite and actions cannot be equal. Love is necessary. Even if a misunderstanding occurs between you and your believing brother, try to remove the effect of this misunderstanding so that you restore what? The love between you and your brother. And look now at the difference between a person you greet who finds his face darkened and perhaps turns away from you, and a man you greet whose face lights up with joy and glows from happiness; you find your heart opens to him. Musnad Ahmad 1412The Hadeeth is Hasan because of corroborating evidence and its isnad is interrupted] (Darussalam) “Spread” means: disseminate and expand the greeting of peace among yourselves.
The student:
Should I not direct you to a thing which, if you do, will foster love amongst you: (i. e.) give currency to (the practice of paying salutation to one another by saying) as-salamu alaikum.

The student: I forgot it.
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah who reminded you. Good.
