Al-Muwatta Hadith<br />

Hadith 53.2<br />

Behaviour in the Greeting<br />

Yahya said that Malik was asked, "Does one greet a woman?" He said, "As for an old woman, I do not disapprove of it. As for<br />

a young woman, I do not like it."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 1.11 Narrated by<br />

Abdullah bin Amr<br />

A man asked the Prophet , "What sort of deeds or (what qualities of) Islam are good?" The Prophet replied, 'To feed (the<br />

poor) and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not know (See Hadith No. 27).<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 9.62 Narrated by<br />

Ibn Umar<br />

Allah's Apostle said, "When the Jews greet anyone of you they say: 'Sam'Alaika (death be upon you);' so you should say; 'Wa<br />

'Alaika (and upon you).' "<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 8.368<br />

Narrated by<br />

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila<br />

Ka'b bin 'Ujra met me and said, "Shall I give you a present? Once the Prophet came to us and we said, 'O Allah's Apostle!<br />

We know how to greet you; but how to send Salat upon you? He said, 'Say: Allahumma Salli ala Muhammadin wa 'ala Ali<br />

Muhammadin, kama sal-laita 'ala all Ibrahima innaka Hamidun Majid. Allahumma barik 'ala Muhammadin wa 'ala all<br />

Muhammadin, kama barakta 'ala all Ibrahima, innaka Hamidun Majid.' "<br />

GRIEVE:<br />

2:38 - We said: "Get ye down all from here; and if as is sure there comes to you guidance from Me"<br />

whosoever follows My guidance on them shall be no fear nor shall they grieve. 56<br />

56 Note the transition from the plural "We" at the beginning of the verse to the singular "Me" later in the same verse God<br />

speaks of Himself usually in the first person plural "We" it is the plural of respect and honour and is used in human<br />

language in Royal proclamations and decrees. But where a special personal relationship is expressed the singular, "I"<br />

or "Me" is used Cf. xxvi. 52, etc. (2.38)<br />

2:62 - Those who believe (in the Qur'an) and those who follow the Jewish (Scriptures) and the<br />

Christians and the Sabians and who believe in Allah and the last day and work righteousness<br />

shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear nor shall they grieve. 7677<br />

76 Latest researches have revealed a small remnant of a religious community numbering about 2,000 souls in Lower<br />

Iraq, near Basra. In Arabic they are called Subbi (plural Subba). They are also called Sabians and Nasoraeans; or<br />

Mandaeans, or Christians of St. John. They claim to be Gnostics, of Knowers of the Great Life. They dress in white,<br />

and believe in frequent immersions in water. Their Book Ginza is in a dialect of Aramaic. They have theories of<br />

Darkness and Light as in Zoroastrian<strong>ism</strong>. They use the name Uardan (Jordan) for any river. They live in peace and<br />

harmony among their Muslim neighbors. They resemble the Sabi-un mentioned in the Qur-an but are not probably<br />

identical with them. (2.62)<br />

77 CF. ii. 38, where the same phrase occurs. And it recurs again and again afterwards. The point of the verse is that<br />

Islam does not teach an exclusive doctrine, and is not meant exclusively for one people. The Jews claimed this for<br />

themselves, and the Christians in their own origin were a sect of the Jews. Even the modern organized Christian<br />

churches, though they have been, consciously or unconsciously, influenced by the Time-spirit, including the historical<br />

fact of Islam, yet cling to the idea of Vicarious Atonement, which means that all who do not believe in it or who lived<br />

previously to the death of Christ are at a disadvantage spiritually before the Throne of God. The attitude of Islam is<br />

entirely different. Islam existed before the preaching of Muhammad on this earth: the Qur-an expressly calls Abraham<br />

a Muslim (iii. 67). Its teaching (submission to God's will) has been and will be the teaching of Religion for all time and<br />

for all peoples. (2.62)<br />

2:112 - Nay whoever submits his whole self to Allah and is a doer of good he will get his reward<br />

with his Lord; on such shall be no fear nor shall they grieve. 114115<br />
