Abu Bakar (R) and Ali (R) were walking towards each other one day. They passed by each other and neither greeted the other. In Arabic culture it is customary for the younger to greet the elder. Later that day Abu Bakr (R) saw Ali (R) and asked him, ” Are you upset with me?” because he had not greeted him. ALi (R) replied, “No, but last night i had a dream. In the dream i saw a beautiful palace in paradise. I asked who’s palace it was and an angel told me it is for the brother who greets the other first. I was waiting for you to greet me because i wanted you to have the palace.” Abu Bakr then told him, “Last night i had the same dream too. I was waiting for you to greet me because i also wanted you to have the palace.”
