Apparently it’s not allowed for muslims to give me salam but nothing saying I can’t initiate it.

Given this, do people expect me to initiate a salam? Or do I just say hi and go about my day.

Context: muslim friends at school

    I have Persian friends, most of whom are not religious. I greet them in Farsi pretty regularly.

      Yeah I had a Pakistani friend in high school and I greeted him in arabic but I’m not sure all people are that welcoming. I might just ask my new Jordan friend what he’s comfortable with.
