Re: two questions
1st, I read somewhere (probably some hadith) that if a non muslim says “asalamu alekum” then you should reply with “wa alaikum…” (tum par bhi, you too) instead of the whole thing.
2nd, as armugal said, is insulting quran. It is a hinduana practice but sadly a lot of people in Pakistan do it… Pakistani tv channels (dramas) are pretty much the leaders when it comes to pushing this type of satanic and unislamic rituals that make daily life complicated.
Bacha bachi ko quran parna ata ho ya nahi un ko quran ke neechey se zaroor guzaaro. :halo:
