  • wishing peace (0 / 0)

    As Elizabeth D said, it's a traditional phrase used with Muhammad and with all other prophets (including Jesus) (peace be upon them).

    When Muslims greet each other, they say "As-salaamu alaykum" which means "Peace be unto you".

    So we say it to each other when we meet, and we invoke it also upon special people we are referring to who are not present.

    I hope this helps clarify things.

    "Riches does not mean having a great amount of property, but riches is self-contentment." (Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him)
