The Quran, IN FACT states that "When greeted with a greeting, you shall respond with a better greeting or at least an equal one. GOD reckons all things." (Surah 4, verse 86). In other words, God exalts us to be courteous - regardless to whom. <BR/><BR/>Islam, unfortunately, has been hijacked by the ulamas who use verses out of context, or the Prophet Muhammad's sayings (hadith) for their own agendas - our own ulamas are no different, IMHO.<BR/><BR/>It's kinda ironic (in a good way) that I spotted your post today, the Prophet's birthday. I've posted some of my own thoughts on my blog, if you have the time...<BR/><BR/>Peace!Walski69https://www.blogger.com/profile/15736212385958836163noreply@blogger.com
