Remaining Sunan and manners of giving Salam

*   The one who offers Salam first is free from arrogance, as is mentioned by the Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم: ‘The first to give Salam is free from arrogance.’ (Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 6, p. 433, Hadith 8786)

*   The one giving Salam (first), recieves 90 mercies, and the replier receives 10. (Kimiya`ay Sa’adat, vol. 1, p. 394)

*   Saying (اَلسَّلامُ عَلَیْکُمْ) gives the sayer 10 good deeds. Adding (وَرَحْمَۃُ اللہ) increases this number to 20, and by further adding (وَبَرَکاتُہ), a total of 30 good deeds will be attained.

*   Some people add other additional phrases onto the end of Salam, this is incorrect and impermissible.

*   Replying to Salam immediately is Wajib, and in such volume, that it can be heard by the one who gave Salam.

*   Kindly remember and practice the correct wording of giving Salam. I will say it, and you repeat after me: (اَلسَّلامُ عَلَیْکُمْ) - Now, I shall give the reply to Salam, and you once again repeat: (وَعَلَیکُمُ السَّلام).
