Aya 69
69
وَلَقَد جاءَت رُسُلُنا إِبراهيمَ بِالبُشرىٰ قالوا سَلامًا ۖ قالَ سَلامٌ ۖ فَما لَبِثَ أَن جاءَ بِعِجلٍ حَنيذٍ

Bijan Moeinian

There came My Messengers to Abraham (in the form of human beings) to relay some good news. They said: “Peace be with you [which is the greeting phrase for Muslims (those who obey the Lord.)] Abraham responded: “Peace be also upon you (not Hi, Good day, etc.)” Abraham then prepared a roasted calf for them (to show the highest hospitality, not knowing yet that they were the Lord’s Angels.)
