Afghan Greeting to Strangers!
“Peace to you brothers”
“And to you. Welcome”
“Thanks be given. Are you well?”
(It was obvious they were utterly destitute)
“Praise God, well enough. And you – your souls are happy?”
“We are happy. And yours?”
“Aazl-I khoda” by Gods grace. “Please sit, and be our guests.”
