Question

If I am very certain that if I give salam to someone, that person won't answer me back as it happens always. Should I give salam to that person everyday when they enter the home or should I refrain from this as it is increasing their sins?

Answer

Continue making salaam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
