Salam alaikum
As-salāmu ʿalaykum (Arabic: ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ ) is a greeting in Arabic that means "Peace be upon you". The salaam is a religious salutation among Muslims when greeting, though it is also used by Arabic speakers of other religions, such as Arab Christians. The typical response to the greeting is wa ʿalaykumu s-salām (وَعَلَيْكُمُ ٱلسَّلَام ) "And peace be upon you, too."
