عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ الإِسْلاَمِ خَيْرٌ؟ قَالَ: «تُطْعِمُ الطَّعَامَ، وَتَقْرَأُ السَّلاَمَ عَلَى مَنْ عَرَفْتَ وَمَنْ لَمْ تَعْرِفْ
[صحيح] - [متفق عليه] - [صحيح البخاري - 12]

Exchanging salam with every body

Salam is a name of Allahu tawala, spread it among yourselves

السلامُ اسمٌ من أسماءِ اللهِ وضَعَهُ اللهُ في الأرضِ ، فأفْشُوهُ بينَكمْ ، فإنَّ الرجلَ المسلمَ إذا مَرَّ بقومٍ فسلَّمَ عليهم ، فردُّوا عليه ؛ كان لهُ عليهم فضلُ درجةٍ بتذكيرِهِ إيَّاهُمُ السلامَ ، فإنْ لمْ يرُدُّوا عليه رَدَّ عليه مَنْ هوَ خيرٌ مِنهمْ وأطْيبُ لمصدر: صحيح الجامع
الراوي: عبدالله بن مسعود
المحدث: الألباني
خلاصة حكمه: صحيح



Meaning:
Salaam ( Peace ) is one of the names of Allah that He has placed on earth, so spread it among yourselves. If a Muslim man passes by a group of people and greets them, and they return his greeting, he will have a higher rank than them for reminding them of peace. If they do not reply to his greeting, someone better and more virtuous than them will reply to it to him.
