When the believers come to see you, greet them [with kindness] saying: "Peace be with you (in Arabic: Salamon-Alaikum.)" God [As a matter of fact] has chosen to be merciful. Therefore, if anyone (who has been involved in a wrongdoing out of ignorance) comes to Him in repentance (and chooses righteousness thereafter), will find Him the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
