Peace
In Romans 5:1, relational and forensic peace with God through justification. سلامتی is close in meaning and etymologically related to salaam/Islam’s own root (s-l-m, submission/peace), which can be a useful bridge point, but صلح (a settled peace/reconciliation between two parties) better captures the specifically relational, reconciliation sense Romans 5 requires.
