Giving Salaam, shaking hands and presenting a gift

Dear Islamic brothers! When meeting Muslims, greeting them with Salaam, shaking hands with them and presenting permissible gifts to them from time to time are also tried and tested methods of increasing love and removing enmity. The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: ‘Shake hands, it will remove malice. Give gifts, love will increase and enmity will be removed.’ (Mauta Imam Maalik, Kitab Hasan-ul-Khaliq, vol. 2, p. 407, Hadees 1731)

Hakeem-ul-Ummah, Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه writes under this Hadees: ‘These two acts are great tried and tested methods. There is no enmity with the one you continuously shake hands with, and if it does somehow occur, then by the blessing of this (shaking hands), it does not remain. Likewise, giving gifts to one another also ends enmity. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, p. 6, p. 368)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Therefore, you too should associate with the religious environment of Dawat-e-Islami. It is not necessary to be acquainted with the one you want to give Salaam to, rather irrespective of whether they know us or not, we should still give Salaam to them. Whilst giving encouragement to spread Salaam, Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat
