WA alaikum salam

____________________________________

Assalamu alaikum WA rahmatullahi WA barakatuh

is the full response to Asalaamu Alaikum. Typically it is believed that when you say it (and the response) Allah will indeed bless you.
The initial greeting can take on numerous forms depending on to whom it is offered:

As-Salāmu `alayk(a) -Peace be upon you (m. sing.)

As-Salāmu `alayk(i) -Peace be upon you (f. sing)

As-Salāmu `alayk(umā) -Peace be upon you (to two people of any gender)

As-Salāmu `alayk(unna) -Peace be upon you (f. plural - to three or more females only)

As-Salāmu `alayk(umu)-Peace be upon you (To a group of three or more people, where at least one is a male - or to a member of state such as a prime minister, president, king)

The correct response depends on who is addressing you. The same rules from above for singularity, duality, and plurality apply:

Wa `alayk(...) s-salām.

What does salam mean?

"Wa alaikum salam" is the response given to "Asalamu alaikum" which means "May Peace be upon you". If an individual is given the salams (Asalamu alaikum) one would reply "wa alaikum salam" which means "AND may Peace be upon you". This is the greeting of the Muslims, and it is quoted in The Bible that this was the greeting of Jesus (peace be upon him) to his companions. Jesus is considered one of the prophets of God by Muslims, I mention this because a lot of people don't know that Muslims believe in Jesus, and Moses, and Abraham, Noah, (Peace be upon them all) etc. Hope that answers you question =).

Can you say as-salamu alaykum to a non Muslims?

Yes Salam Alaykum can be said to non Muslims, the peace and Islam is for every one. I am a Muslim and i wish peace for all so Salam Alaykum every one. No. It is true that the Muslims should pray to Almighty Allah to show the right path so that every human being is saved from Hell. Yet, saying Assalamo Alaikum is a one of the Shair-i-Islam. It is exchanged between two Muslims only. If a non-Muslims says Assalamo Alaikum, the Muslim should reply Wa-alaikum, withhout the addition of Salam because he doesn't know the intention of the non-Muslim. Hope you understand.


What is the Iraqi Arabic word for hello?

The customary greeting in Arabic, regardless of religious affiliation, is "Salam Alaikum (peace be upon you)." "Salam Alaikum" can be considered more closely translated as "Hello" because of the slightly higher sense of formality. Colloquially, Iraqis greet friends with "Shakumaku," which is equivalent to the American English, "What's up?" "Shlone Sahtek (how's your health)?" is also another popular greeting. These of course are in addition to "Marhaba."
