The symbol of the letter Sad for the prayer upon the Prophet

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And other than that, is it permissible to use the letter Sad as a symbol for the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible to place a Sad in place of the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); rather, the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is to be written with this wording. As for writing a Sad, that is a deficiency on the part of the writer, and this Sad does not suffice in place of the prayer upon the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.

Another questioner:
And he did not write "Fashl." The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)

The Shaykh:
Hmm?

Another questioner:
You have neither truth nor correctness from your side.

The Shaykh:
So if the mention of the Messenger comes and one does not pray upon him, that is a deficiency; he misses the reward and leaves behind what is prescribed. Yes, and it is one of the rights of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), for among his rights (peace and blessings be upon him) upon us is that we pray upon him when he is mentioned (peace and blessings be upon him). This is one of his rights (peace and blessings be upon him). So whoever does not pray upon him has left behind one of the rights of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). And in the hadith:
Similar to 644 except it has "Shame on" rather than "Wretched is;"رَغِمَ أَنْفُ امْرِئٍ ذُكِرْتَ عِنْدَهُ فَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْكَ
Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 646
