Bedeutung
The act of greeting someone
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Salim' gesture is the physical manifestation of 'beri salam'. It involves touching the elder's hand to your forehead to show humility. For Muslims, 'beri salam' specifically means saying 'Assalamu'alaikum'. It is considered a 'wajib' (obligatory) act of kindness. In Javanese culture, the level of 'salam' can change based on the 'unggah-ungguh' (social hierarchy). A deeper bow might accompany the phrase. In cities like Jakarta, 'beri salam' is often shortened to just a nod and 'Pagi Pak/Bu' in office settings, but the core value of acknowledging the other person remains.
The 'Salim' Secret
If you want to impress an Indonesian family, 'salim' (touch their hand to your forehead) when you 'beri salam'. They will love you!
Don't be too loud
A 'salam' should be gentle and calm, not shouted, unless you are far away.
