Benefits from the Hadith

  1. The comer should begin greeting those who are already sitting.
  2. The reward increases with the increase of the words of the greeting of peace.
  3. The most perfect form of greeting someone with peace is: (May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you), and the best response is: (And upon you be the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah).
  4. The greeting of peace and the response have various levels and the reward varies as well.
  5. Teaching people what is good and drawing their attention to seek what is better.
  6. Ibn Hajar said: If the one initiating the greeting adds (and mercy of Allah), it is recommended to respond with (and His blessings). However, if the initiator adds (and His blessings), is further addition permissible in the reply? Similarly, if the initiator goes beyond (and His blessings), is this permissible for him? Mālik narrated in Al-Muwatta’ on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) that he said: The greeting of peace ends with the blessing.
