Goodbye OR Assalaamu’alaikum

It’s best if we stop saying ‘goodbye’.

It’s actually an abbreviation for ‘God be with you’. And since it does not originate from Islam, we all should be aware that the ‘God’ here was never originally intended to be referring to Allah.

To our Muslim friends, we say “assalaamu’alaikum” at least.

To our non-Muslim friends, we say “bye” or “see you”.

Assalaamu’alaikum
