i think you guys are really misunderstanding my question. Im aware of the halal and haram, i just wanted to know if i am offending sisters or not....

Then I dont get what your worried about, if you know the halal and haram, then do the halal avoid the haram, if you offend anyone then its not your fault.

Its like saying 'do I have to apologise to a non muslim who asks me to come and worship his god because he might be offended.'

You have to talk to all these people anyway as part of your job. You say salam, whether they respond or not is up to them. Its funny, we can spend a whole day talking to women as part of our working life. Where i work, i do have to work with women quite often, these could be colleagues, external consultants, trainers etc. Wheres the logic in not saying Salam to the muslims i work with?? (I have worked on occasions with muslim women and i do always say salam and they have always responded). You dont have to look at every woman as an object of desire, you can see a muslim and see a 'sister' a mother and aunt.

....and thats my two pence worth.

Increase the peace!!!

Good point but the scholars agree that if the sister or brother is fitnah it's better for you to not say Salam. And if they do, say it back..

uh?

Well if they are being offended because of something Islamic then its not your fault, its like saying someone might be offended because you have a beard. Well thats not your fault.

Love you for the sake of Allah :happy:

exactly they shouldn't feel offended by an Islamic deed...

May Allah ease it for you

Wassalam
 
I just remembered something. Shouldn't the one who approaches another say salam first?
 
found this inshaAllah..

the Prophet (sws) is reported to have said:
The young shall say salam to the old, the one who is walking shall say it to the sitting and a small group shall say it to a large one. (Bukhari: No. 6234)

So I guess it applies to both.
 
ur not being annoying at all..

Let's look at it like this..

there's no need to say salam aloud to strangers you pass by in the street. After all, salam is a duaa and one can say it in the heart. Allah says we should make duaa for each other. So as long as Allah hears it then it's ok. My logic :X


but if any person, (bro/sis) approaches the opposite with intention to talk then they should address them with salam first. it's good manners. I mean how is it wrong to say salam if your going to talk to them anyway.

hope that makes sense..
 
oh, another thing..

say at work I am approached by a muslim brother, I'd respect him for giving salam before saying what he's gotto say. I'd just think that he is well aware of the islamic etiquette of giving salam. Also when we say salam we are reminded of our duty as muslims, and it serves as a reminder to behave with modesty.

I mean it'd be so hypocritical if a guy approached a sister, said salam then asked for her #. :-\

I disagree, there is a need to say it aloud, because we are told to Spread the Salam, and also, it was shown to us as being a way to increase love between each other.
 
U think we should say it aloud to brothers and sisters we're walking past in the street? I don't think that's appropriate.
 
a women saying it out loud salaam in the street is unappropriate.......as we should be modest inshAllah....

but bro habs...its not appropriate.....
 
As Salaamu Alaykum,


Allah A'lam but ive never heard about giving salaams from the heart!?

I agree with those who say, it must be said out loud , but for the women it should be just loud enough for the person to hear.
