Re: firefox on mac osx leopard - tashkeel?



You say you can greet non-muslims with "salam" but can't with "salam alaykum"?

If you say what you mean, then what is the difference between these two greetings?

I think you should wish non-muslims peace too.. muslims and non- muslims both need it!

****************
CONCLUSION
****************
Islam (the religion of peace) has a special act of worshiping Allah
called Salam,
which is practiced by Muslims by grating each other with "Al-Salam Alykom"
meaning "Peace be upon you"

There are some simple-minded hydrostatics from both Muslims and non- Muslims
want to give that we all are the same we all are equal we are all
happy ... BLAH BLAH
by making non-Muslims practice some Islamic acts of worshiping Allah like Salam

But the real Islamic way to treat non-Muslims is with any nice kind gratings
(other than Al-Salam Alykom because it's an act of worshiping Allah)
like Al-Salam Ala-man-itaba'a al-Huda meaning "Peace be upon followers
of righteousness "
or Salam (Peace) or any other kind gratings like "best gratings" or
"good morning" ..etc.

forcing non-Muslims into Islamic acts of worshiping should be
considered offensive
not the other way,

And also there are some rigid people who misunderstand it
so I would like to point that if there is a group (like this one)
having some Muslims
and non-Muslims then we can say Al-Salam Alykom even if Muslims are
smaller in number
I come to know that because I was a teacher in a so far place where
there are many non-Muslims and a few Muslims, so when I asked several
reliable scholars
they say I may say Al-Salam Alykom to my class
so if you are not yet convinced please email me and I'll show you
references and proofs
