HOW TO GREET IMAM MAHDI (A.S.) WITH SALAAM

Imam Baqir (A.S.) is reported to have said:

            Whoever from you Shias stays alive and visits Mahdi (A.S.), he should say upon seeing him:

 اَلسَّلامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يا أَهْلَ بَيْتِ النُّبُوَّةِ وَمَعْدَنَ الْعِلْمِ وَمَوْضِعَ الرِّسالَةِ .

            Peace be upon you O’ Household of Prophet and the source of knowledge and position of divine messenger-hood.^[1]
