So don't forget after every prayer to say:
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلَامُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلَامُ، تَبَارَكْتَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ

Do you think this young boy is ever going to forget the statement? Never.
It's not about the statement that the Prophet told him, but it's about the way in which he touched him before he told him.
