"Hi" not "Salam"

Even though, I do it all the time, I would still like to know why we usually say ‘hi’ rather than ‘salam’?

Seriously, Our culture is fading away… :confused:

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

No one ever replies to my intellectual posts :(

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

i agree and its not only cultvre thing but religious as well

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

Salam is not culture, its religion. U need to be able to differentiate b/w the two.

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

I agree, we should not say "hi" and also not say "salam" and also not say salamalakum (in paindo ishtyle)

But we should say "Assalam-o-Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu" :) if possible otherwise only Assalam-o-Alaikum

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

I always say "Salaam" to my Muslim pals when I see them. Even like on MSN or on GupShup and stuff. Saying Salaam means a lot more than just "Hi".

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

Assalam Alaikum.... and to follow Islamic Culture one should say that always...


By the Way Islam is a Deen....


"Deen" means a way of Life, when Muslims meet each other they Should say Salam and reply with one better than was given.


**and so it is written in our Holy Books....:) **

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

There is no such thing as Islamic culture.

Re: "Hi" not "Salam"

i agree. i think that is one of the biggest problems we have is that we mix culture and religion.
