Bismillaah wal hamdulillaah was salaat was salaam 'ala nabiyyina Muhammad, wa ba'!

As salaamu 'alaykunna wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatoh ukhtil mobaarakah

Question: Suppose someone gives us greetings of peace and ends his greeting with, 'Wabarakaatuhu.' In order to respond with a better greeting, as is mentioned in the verse

"better than it",

may we add, 'wa-maghfiratuhu Wa-Ihsaanuhu... (And His forgiveness and generosity...)?

Answer: When responding to another person's greeting, you should not add anything after, "Wabarakaatuhu," even if that is where the other person ended. Ibn 'Abdul-Barr said, "Ibn 'Abbaas (radiya Allaahu 'anhumaa) and Ibn 'Umar (radiya Allaahu 'anhumaa) said to, 'Finish [greetings of peace with Al-Barakah (i.e., 'Wabarakaatuhu'), just as Allaah ('azza wa djall) said about His righteous slaves:

"The Mercy of Allaah and His Blessings be on you, O the family [of Ibraaheem]" (Qur'an 11:73)

And they both disliked for anyone to add anything after 'Wabarakaatuhu' in his greetings of peace."
