am i wrong or did the prophet die in jerusalem? in the body it claims he died in medina. im no muslim, so i wouldnt feel entirely comfortable changing that. i might not know something...but that should be adressed if i am correct.

No -- it was in Medina. See Muhammad. Jerusalem was the night journey, which came earlier. BrandonYusufToropov

Altogether we can state that jerusalem is the gateway to heaven and God. 77.248.185.43 05:06, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Saying the ending tasleem only once ("As-salaamu 'alaykum" while turning the head to the right); anything more is frowned upon (except for followers behind an imam, who are recommended to face the front again and say "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the imam and, if anyone is to their left, turn their head to the left and say "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the person on their left).

• • • There maybe a slight correction to this in that saying the ending tasleem ("As-salaamu 'alaykum" while turning the head to the right)is correct

For followers behind an imam, who are recommended to face the front again and say "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the imam and, if anyone is to their left, turn their head to the left and say "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the person on their left).

• • • After the intial salaam "As-salaamu 'alaykum" then for the one who is following he should then face the imam and again say "As-salaamu 'alaykum" and if he has anyone to his left in this congergational prayer he should again say "As-salaamu 'alaykum" according to some the last two taslems should be said with a very,very low audible (some may say it should be silent perhaps with just the lips moving) if there is no one to the left than no salaam is given it that case only the right and to the front for the imam. the person whom initially put the wiki together did a really good job in putting together a very general synopsis on the Maliki school but in the part which i am addressing where it mentions the taslem i do not recall in mypractice where i should be saying "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the imam and, if anyone is to their left, turn their head to the left and say "wa 'alaykum as-salaam" to the person on their left. I learned it should be "As-salaamu 'alaykum" I think it must of been a typo on the part of the individual. Anyway that was how i Learned and I could wrong but hey ALLAHU ALim (ALLAH knows best) If I stand corrected please make it known if there are any replies to this entry. JazkumALLAH khair
