The ruling on writing (ص) or (صلعم) instead of (peace and blessings be upon him)
What is the ruling on writing (ص) or (صلعم) if the writer is in a hurry, and what is the ruling if he is not in a hurry?
Meaning: Some people, when they write, say: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Prophet, and then they write (ص) as a symbol for صلى الله عليه وسلم.And some of them say: When they write: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, or write (صلعم), all of this is forbidden for the servant. First, if he writes صلى الله عليه وسلم, he has written a supplication for which he is granted ten good deeds, but if he uses a symbol, he does not get this supplication.
Then, if he uses the symbol (ص) and a person comes to read it and does not know the convention, what does he say?He says: He says: The Prophet said "Sād," and this is a great error.Or he says: He says: The Prophet said "Ṣallam," and he makes Ṣallam one of the names of the Messenger.
In any case: The scholars disliked that.And they said: One should either write (peace and blessings be upon him) or (may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him), or leave it out and let the reader be the one who sends blessings upon him. As for writing the symbol (ص) or (صلعم), that is disliked.
