Within Muslim practice as reflected in the sources, the greeting as-salāmu ʿalaykum functions as an invocation of peace and a religious salutation; Qurʾānic recitation is presented as the transmission of divine truth. The texts imply verbal invocation of God's peace and the recitation of scripture confer spiritual benefit and alignment with divine guidance, understood within the tradition as bringing peace/blessing to addressed persons or contexts.
The phrase as-salāmu ʿalaykum is described in the sources as a conventional Arabic greeting meaning "Peace be upon you," used widely by Muslims and predating Islam in some usage. It has become a religious salutation for Muslims worldwide. Separately, the Noble Qur'ān and the practice of Qurʾānic recitation are central to Islam, framed in the sources as the final Divine revelation and a core means by which believers express submission, peace, and obedience. The supplied materials do not present a distinct, codified ritual that uses the greeting or the adhan specifically as an exorcistic or apotropaic procedure; they also do not supply stepwise instructions, material implements, specialist roles, explicit supernatural targets, or contraindications. Where popular or ethnographic claims elsewhere suggest protective uses of vocal formulas (e.g., to repel jinn), those claims are not present in the supplied excerpts and therefore are not documented here.
- 01No stepwise protective procedure is supplied in the provided sources; the texts document (a) the verbal formula as-salāmu ʿalaykum as a greeting meaning "Peace be upon you," and (b) the centrality of Qurʾānic recitation as a religious practice. The sources do not give ordered steps for deploying these formulas as a formal protective ritual.
