Greeting non-Muslims
Question
Is it permissible for a Muslim to initiate the greeting with a kaafir, e.g. good morning?
What if this is for the purpose of inviting people to Islam?
Answer
It is better not to.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

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.
