| Excellence of spreading the Islamic greeting |
The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.) said: ‘You shall not enter paradise until you believe, and you shall not believe until you love one another. Shall I not inform you of something, if you were to act upon it, you will indeed achieve mutual love for one another? Spread the greeting amongst yourselves.’

AAammar (r.a.a.) said: ‘Three characteristics, whoever combines them, has completed his faith: to be just, to spread greetings to all people and to spend (charitably) out of the little you have.’

‘AAabdullah Ibn AAamr (r.a.a.) reported that a man asked the Prophet (s.a.w.): ‘Which Islam is the best?’. He (s.a.w.) replied: Feed (the poor), and greet those whom you know as well as those whom you do not.
