CAN A MUSLIM SAY SALAM ALAIKUM TO NON MUSLIM, OR RESPOND TO THEIR SALAM?...
There is nothing wrong with saying salam Alaikum to a non muslim or responding to their salam. While some scholars advised against initiating the greetings, it is generally acceptable and even encouraged to respond positively to non muslim if they greet you.
Muslims are encouraged to spread peace as a way to foster peace and goodwill. Interacting with mon muslim is vital and a form of an avenue to spread dawah. May Allah grant us the understanding of the Deen......

CHANGING YOUR WIFES NAME TO BEAR YOUR LAST NAME. IS IT ALLOWED IN ISLAM?...
There is no blame if you change the name of your wife to bear your last name. The Messenger advised to let them bear their fathers names. The Quran suggested for people to bear their parents name also. What if you divorce her? And she re marry again, then she uses her new husband's name, then may be another divorce again? The logical thing is to let them bear their fathers name. That makes a lot of sense. All the Messengers wives bear their fathers names.....

WHO NAMED THE PROPHET MOHAMMAD saw?...
It was the custom of the Arabs to take new born babies to the kaa'ba to be introduced to the elders and ruling elites of Mecca. When Abdul Muthalib brought him to kaa'ba, the elders asked him, what is his name? So instinctively Abdul Muthalib said 'Mohammad', then they say, what kind of name is this? We never heard such a name in Arabia. Abdul Muthalib responded: he is an orphan and I want him to be LOVED AND PRAISE BY ALL. The name was inspired to him by Allah to be named for the first time on earth. AllahuAqbar!!....

IF THE GOD OF ISLAM IS OMNIPOTENT, WHY WOULD HE CHANGED HIS MIND BY ABROGATING CERTAIN VERSES AND REPLACE THEM WITH OTHER VERSES?.........
In Islamic theology, the concept of abrogation (Nashk), does not imply a contradiction or flaws in a perfect God, but rather a divine , sequential guidance in succession in which a later verse supersedes an earlier one. This is understood not as a correction of a mistake but a planned rules that were revealed to suit different circumstances, with later verses being presented as a better or similar to earlier ones to fit in the present circumstances. Much like how a teacher progresses through a curriculum in stages. The example of it can be likened to what the Old Testament said on divorce: to just write her a note and hand it to her as a letter of divorce, but the New Testament vehemently opposes that ruling. There is no contradictions at all in the Quran and if there is, we need just one to be pointed out. May Allah be Glorified forever and ever......

HOW CAN MUSLIMS CLAIM THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE QURANIC PRESERVATION WHEN SOME MANUSCRIPTS OF THE QUR'AN DIFFERS AMONGST THE COMPANIONS.......
The history of the preservation of the Qur'an has been studied and written about by muslims and non muslims extensively. The Qur'anic preservation process is in a class by itself, and no religion can claim perfection of their books the way the Qur'an has.
Countless believers have memorized the Qur'an word for word across the globe, and continue to do so today. This has been the tradition of Muslims from the very first day the Qur'an started decending to the Prophet Mohammad. The muslims have the luxury of listening to the recitation of the Qur'an by the Prophet, which also makes it easy for them to memorize the Qur'an.
Yes there are some variations in the style of writing of the Qur'an in the choice of letters, but that does not change the meaning of the verses or compromise the integrity of the verses. Taking into consideration that the Qur'an was not revealed on so.e parchment or writ, it was rather verbally revealed. Here are some examples: B'cos- Because; Favor-Favour; Honor-Honour...etc. Like I said it doesn't compromise the meaning of the words indeed. During the Chaliphate of Usman, the leading Sahabas came together and corrected the variant readings with variation, and unified, codified and standardized the Qur'anic scripts conforming the Quraishi dialect following strict rules of how the Qur'an came down. Since that period, few years after the demised of the Holy Prophet and the Qur'an remain so for over 1400 years, again no religious scripture has enjoyed this perfect preservation except Islam.....
