Feeding the Poor & Greeting People in Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught that feeding the poor and greeting people, both known and unknown, are good qualities of Islam.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: A man asked the Prophet , "What sort of deeds or (what qualities of) Islam are good?" The Prophet replied, 'To feed (the poor) and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not Know .
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ أَىُّ الإِسْلاَمِ خَيْرٌ قَالَ ‏ "‏ تُطْعِمُ الطَّعَامَ، وَتَقْرَأُ السَّلاَمَ عَلَى مَنْ عَرَفْتَ وَمَنْ لَمْ تَعْرِفْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us about two important values in Islam. The first is to feed the poor, which is known as At-Taqsiyyah in Arabic. This means to provide food for those who cannot afford it or do not have access to it. The second value is Al-Salam, which means to greet people with kindness and respect regardless of whether you know them or not. These two values are essential qualities of a Muslim's character and should be practiced regularly by all believers.
