Peace be upon him

Peace Be Upon Him – in Arabic, salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam, also transcribed as ''sallalahu aleyhi wasallam – is a phrase that Muslims often say after mentioning a prophet. An alternative translation is "May God bless him and grant him peace".

It is seen as a mark of respect and is related to the Islamic concept of dhikr or remembrance. In writing it is generally abbreviated as PBUH or SAW.
