He explains that Islam has created a "assian's" greeting, which is a simple way to express concern for the customer's brothers and sisters.

			Nonetheless, when I say
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			to you, I mean, I guarantee you, I
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			will not harm you. What does peace be
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			upon you actually mean? What peace? I'm talking
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			of holistic
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			peace. Peace be upon you from Allah. May
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			peace be upon you from me. I'm not
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			gonna harm you. The type of peace I
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			can offer you, it's going to be there.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			What peace Allah can give you is actually
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			holistic. Allah will give you contentment and so
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			much more. The most beautiful, most amazing greeting
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			ever is assalamu alaikum.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			The greeting on that day
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			when they meet with Allah will be salaam.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			Peace.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			SubhanAllah. So be conscious of the fact that
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			you are saying, assalamu alaikum. What's the point
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53
			of assalamu alaikum? And then you dagger the
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			person as they turn around. You say, you
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			know what? Rotten person, and you walked away.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			Why did you have to say salam if
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00
			that's how you felt?
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			In fact, the reason I raise all of
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			this is because
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			to show a concern for your brothers and
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:09
			sisters begins at home. It begins here. It
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			begins with those around you, those you interact
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			with. Allah places people in your life, makes
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			you pass people on the street,
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			designed by him. It was not just a
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			mere coincidence
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			designed by Allah. You passed a certain person,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			or you crossed paths with someone, or you're
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:28
			in a situation, or you're sitting next to
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			someone right now.
