QUICK LESSONS:
Greet your Imam and others around you with salam .

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Samurah bin Jundab states that the Prophet Muhammad commanded his followers to greet their Imam and one another with salam. This is a sign of respect for the leader of the community as well as a way to show kindness and peace towards one another. It is important for Muslims to remember this commandment in order to maintain unity within the community. Additionally, it serves as an example of how we should treat each other in our daily lives; by greeting one another with salam we can create an atmosphere of peace and harmony.

The Prophet Muhammad also taught us that when we greet someone else with salam, it will be returned back to us from Allah Almighty Himself. This shows us how much Allah values kindness and respect between people; He rewards those who are kind-hearted towards others even if they do not receive anything in return. Furthermore, this hadith teaches us about humility; when we greet someone else first instead of waiting for them to initiate it first, it shows that we are humble enough to take the initiative ourselves without expecting anything in return from them.
