Question
I am a follower of the Maaliki Math-hab. How many Salaams are there in Salaat?
Answer
According to the Maaliki Math-hab, the Imaam and the Munfarid make only one Salaam to the right. There is no left Salaam for them. However, the muqtadis (followers) should make three Salaams: One Salaam towards the right to end the Salaat; one Salaam in front as a response to the Imaam, and one Salaam to the left as a response to those on his left side.
