Question

السلام علیکم.

When someone greets you saying “compliments of the season,”

How do you reply? Remaining silent may also not be an up option sometimes

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

You may simply say “you too” or “the same to you”.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
