8/15/2023 0 Comments Muslim saying peace be with youWhy is it in this my country, a majority of fellow Muslims propagate a monopoly over who can and cannot greet one another? 'Assalamualaikum' generally means 'peace be unto you' (or, 'peace be with you') and the appropriate general non-Muslim reply is 'Mualaikumsalam' which means 'peace be also with/upon you' in the Arabic language. This speech referred to a city where lay the ruins of the Jewish temple, the Christian church and the Muslim mosque, all in worship of the same god (an excellent statement for inter-fatih reflections). Salaam also helps us to get close to each other and also a source of removing arrogance.In the world's largest Muslim nation, Indonesia, Christians of various denominations refer to God as 'Tuhan Allah' without having to worry about possible rioters waiting outside their churches.Īs another traveled Muslim, it frustrated me to watch the movie 'Kingdom of Heaven' on Astro where greetings of peace between Muslims and Christian were censored along with the speech made by the character Balian before the attack and siege of Jerusalem by Salahuddin's army. In a nutshell, Salaam is a blessing that Allah Almighty Himself send down for us so we should use it to get rewards from Allah Almighty. Salaam is a prayer of peace and blessings.From this verse of Noble Quran, we can say that Salaam is the greeting of people of Jannah. Enter and live in it forever.”(Quran, 39:73). When they draw near its gates will be opened, and its keepers will say to them: “Salaamu ‘Alaikum”, you have done well. In Holy Quran, Allah Almighty says: “Then, those that feared their Lord shall be driven in companies into Paradise.Shall I not tell you about something which, if you do it, you will love one another? Spread salaam (the greeting of peace) among you.”(Muslim) Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “You will not enter Paradise until you believe, and you will not believe until you love one another. Saying salaam is a means of entering Jannah.So we can say that As-Salaamu Alaikum is a source of getting rid of sins.
