Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to do so]. O you who have believed, ask [ Allah to confer] blessing upon him and ask [ Allah to grant him] peace. Quran 33:56 No one can force you to do anything but I personally don't mind the formality. It's only 4 characters after the mentioning of the prophet pbuh.
Answer. Praise be to Allah. The meaning of Bismillah is: I begin my actions, seeking the help of Allah and seeking blessing (barakah) by beginning in His name. In the phrase Bismillah (lit. In the name of Allah), there is something which is omitted, namely: I begin my action in the name of Allah. So saying Bismillah before reading Qur’anAnas reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “As-Salam (peace) is one of the Names of Allah Almighty which Allah has placed in the earth. Therefore give the greeting among yourselves.” – Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Book 42, Hadith 989. In the Quran we also see the instruction from Allah to greet each other with words of peace:
Saying salam is indeed a virtuous act and a sunnah of our beloved nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa salam) and the anbiya (alaihimus salam) before him. However, it is the wisdom of Allah the Almighty that he has designed Shari’ah in such a way that it closes all doors leading to fitnah. Allah Ta’ālā says in the Holy Quran:
We can make Du’a by this Name when we want security, safety and peace. Sometimes we are very worried, very nervous, sad, anxious, say: “O Allah antas Salam (You are as Salam), give me security and protect me from this.” You can also say: “O Salam, give me Your Salam in the hereafter, and guide me to subul as-Salam (ways of peace).”JtYNmqk.
can we say salam to allah
