Can You Initiate a Greeting to a Non-Muslim?
Initiating a greeting to a non-Muslim is prohibited. But if they greet us, we have to respond to them. However, it is permissible to greet a non-Muslim first if that serves a purpose, or for fear of his harm, or because of blood ties, or for a reason that requires that.110,650- 18,591
