00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			To be able to greet
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:04
			is an islamic teaching. To be able to
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:05
			respond to a greeting
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:09
			is a quranic injunction. You have to. Someone
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			says, Assalamu alaykum. You like it or you
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			don't like it, you have to say, Wa
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			Alaikum Assalam. The minimum.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			You like it or you don't like it,
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			you have to say Wa Alaikum Assalam. The
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			minimum.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			May Allah grant us acceptance.
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:22
			Why?
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			Why do we say that's the minimum? The
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:25
			minimum because
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			someone made a prayer for you, may peace
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			be upon you. Wow,
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			what an amazing way of greeting people. May
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			peace
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			be upon you. I'm in search of peace,
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			so are you. May peace be upon you.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:39
			Assalam.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			All types of peace. I pray that you
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			have good health, I pray that you have
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			contentment, I pray that everything goes good for
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			you, you have a good job, I pray
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			that you get, you know, sustenance from Allah,
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			your worries are taken care of by Allah,
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			difficulty is taken away from you, and so
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			and so much more. I pray for that,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			and the blessings and the mercy of Allah
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			upon you. That's a Muslim when I'm just
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			saying, Hi.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			That's what it is.
