Say Salaam and enter Jannah

by Asma bint Shameem

🍃 The Prophet ﷺ said:

“You will not enter Jannah until you BELIEVE;

and you will not believe until you LOVE one another.

Shall I not tell you about something which, if you do it, you will love one another?

Spread SALAAM amongst yourselves.”

(Saheeh Muslim)

Subhaan Allaah!

What a beautiful hadeeth, establishing love for one another!

And what an easy way to earn Jannah!

All we have to do is to say SALAAM to each other for the sake of Allaah.

Saying salaam SOFTENS HEARTS and builds BONDS.

🍃 A man asked the Prophet ﷺ:

“What is the BEST thing in Islaam?”

He said....

“Feeding others and .....

giving the greeting of salaam to those whom you know and those whom you do not know.” (al-Bukhaari, Muslim)

Amazing how saying salaam is such a SIMPLE thing, yet it earns SUCH IMMENSE REWARDS!

So the next time you see a Muslim, SMILE and say Assalaamu Alaikum.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t know them.

Just say Salaam.

Say it from your HEART.

Say it for the sake of your RABB.

Say it to PLEASE Him.

Say it because He LOVES for you to say it.

Keep a lookout for ANY Muslim you see ANY where, ANY place.

Say salaam to those in the masjid...

the one you parked next to, the one by the door, and the one praying next to you.

Say salaam to that Muslim in the market and on the street....

and the one you pass by at the airport…

or in the grocery store…

or at the doctor’s office…

or in school…

Just smile and say Assalaamu Alaikum.

Say salaam to those you KNOW and to those you DON’T know...

JUST to please Allaah.

And qualify yourself for the Mercy of your Rabb and entry into Jannah!

May Allaah make us among the people of Jannah.

And Allaah knows best.
