Common ways to greet someone include:

1. As-salaam ‘alykum – This is arguably the most common greeting. It means, “peace be upon you”.
2. Ahlan (hello). This can be used for anyone at any time of the day.
3. Marhaba (Welcome) It comes from the word “rahhaba” which means “to welcome”.

“Goodbye” in Arabic is “ma’aasalaama.” All of these terms are understood throughout the Muslim world.

Ahlan wa Sahlan literally means “welcome,” but is commonly used as a general greeting just like “hello” in English. This greeting can be shortened to just ahlan (hi) in informal settings. When greeting a number of people, you should say ahlan wa Sahlan bekum or ahlan bekum.
