Ruling on writing (ص) and (صلعم) for abbreviation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
We find people who write the letter (ص) or (صلعم) instead of ﷺ. Is this permissible?
Answer: This is not something that should be done. We have pointed this out more than once, and the scholars have pointed it out as well, so it should not be done. At the very least, it is severely disliked. Rather, the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) should be written in full: ﷺ. One should not write (ص) or (صلعم). None of this is something that should be done.
Therefore, it came in a hadith from him (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:Sahih Muslim 408, and whoever writes this abbreviation forfeits this good. It is incumbent upon whoever writes any of this to write it in full, to write the prayer in full: ﷺ. Yes.
