WRITING ‘SALL ALLĀHU ʿALAY-HI WA-SALLAM’ IN MS-WORD AND MS-OFFICE-SUIT DOCUMENTS

23:18:00

All Muslims are bound to say ‘Sall Allāhu ʿalay-hi wa-sallam’, whenever they hear or write the name of Holy Prophet Mohammed  () as you may have observed, in the previous sentence I said ‘Sall Allāhu ʿalay-hi wa-sallam’ in Arabic after the name of the Holy Prophet. In Holy Quran, Allah says “Indeed Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet; O People who believe! Send blessings and abundant salutations upon him” – (Chapter 33, Verse 56).


The saying ‘Sall Allāhu ʿalay-hi wa-sallam’ means ‘May Allah honour him and grant him peace’. While Muslims do say ‘Sall Allāhu ʿalay-hi wa-sallam’ when they hear the name of Holy Prophet Mohammed (), however when the name will be written in MSWord or Outlook, they face with difficult task of writing the phrase in Arabic language font. Perhaps you have realized, it’s not simple to type the phrase in Arabic language, especially when you are operating on an English keyboard. To get over this challenge, it became a commonly acknowledged practice among Muslims to write the English interpretation of ‘, that is ‘May Allah honor him and grant him peace’.
