It also shows that we are willing to forgive each other for any wrongs we may have done in the past. By doing this, we are showing our love for one another as fellow believers in Allah's mercy and grace. We should strive to always greet each other warmly whenever possible as it is an act of kindness that can bring us closer together as a community of believers.
