THE WALIMAH - GREETING WITH SALAM, AND SHAKING HANDS When a Muslim meets his Muslim brothers, he should greet them with salam. Similarly, when one enters into someones house for food or some other reason, he should greet the people who are present with salam. Some people greet each other with non-Islamic greetings, such as, Good evening, Hi, and so on. This should be avoided, because Allah gave us a better greeting: the salam. It carries a supplication of peace, and it is the greeting of the angels and the people of Jannah. Some people are also of the non-Islamic habit of hugging and kissing each other whenever they meet. Hugging should only be reserved to meeting a person after a long absence, such as one who just came back from travel. In other situations, the Muslims should greet each other with salam and shake each others hands.
