Is Not Saying Salam a Sin?

Answered by 

Q: To make Salam to others is sunnah. If a person does not ever make salam to others, is he a sinner? Can we blame him?

If a group of people come to another group and nobody in the group does Salam, will they be at fault?

Bismillaah

A: To leave out an emphasized sunnat is wrong. And wrong is sin.

Yes.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
