Bowing the head while greeting someone


435

Q 2: What is the ruling on bowing the head to a Muslim when greeting them?


A: It is not permissible for any Muslim to bow their heads when greeting others, whether they are Muslims or non-Muslims. This is because this act is done by non-Muslims who bow to their superiors and it is similar to Ruku` (bowing), which is a kind of veneration that should be given to none but Allah.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
