A Jewish Girl Wants to Learn About Islam

I don't understand, why would they react?

But Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) mentioned in Ahkaam Ahl al-Dhimmah that if we know for sure that a disbeliever has said “Al-salaamu ‘alaykum,” then we may say, “Wa ‘alaykum al-salaam.” [/I]

Why you dont accept what Ibn al-qayyim said? You are generalizing single incident happened long time ago and igonring simple commonsense, like what this learned man said.

:salam2: to my brothers and sisters

Allah says in the Qur'an (interpretation of the meaning):

When a greeting is offered you, answer it with an even better greeting, or (at least) with its like. Allah keeps count of all things. (Qur'an, 4:86)

So whenever somebody greets you with "asalamu alaikum" you should greet it with at least "walaikum asalam" or even better "walaikum asalam warahmatullah" or better still "walaikum asalam warahmatullah wabarakatahu", whether it be a Muslim or non-Muslim.

But as sister Samiha has said, if a non-Muslim greets you with "asaam alaikum" (may death be upon you), or indeed any other such greeting, then the reply should be "wa alaikum".

:wasalam:

Response to your question ...

Thank you all of you for welcoming me. I guess I will have lots of reading to do. My first question to any learned man or woman would be, what is the role of each of muslim to enter the kingdom of heaven?

Hello Zhour Khan,
To enter the kingdom of heaven there are many things to be done. Other's have point out the 5 pillars of Islam. A Muslim must strive to be complete in following those 5 pillars. The most general answer is 'to follow the Quran and Sunnah'. Once you start to follow the Quran and Sunnah of Prophet Muhammed then it is easy. It is a guided path made perfect by the Creator of the worlds. The Prophet lived this path and if we follow him then by the will of Allah we shall enter the gates of paradise.

Shalom sister! I welcomed you by the word shalom (hebrew = peace) and called you as sister. You are my sister, not by religion but because you are human being.

your sister :shymuslima1:

Assalamu Alaykum dear brother,

this is incorrect.

If a non Muslim says the Salam in its completeness and you have no doubt that they said it properly, then we should reply with the proper Salam back.

We only say "Wa Alaykum" when we do not know what the other person said or we have doubts if they said it properly.

This is what we understand from the Verse in the Quran that you had supplied and also from the Hadith of the Jewish man not giving correct greeting to our blessed Prophet :saw:
