SALAAM (Arab. salam, " peace ") , the

Oriental

term

for a salutation. The word is used for any act of salutation, as of an

ambassador

to a monarch, and so in a secondary sense of a compliment. Properly it is the oral salutation of Mahommedans to each other; but it has acquired the

special

meaning of an act of obeisance.
