Peace Be Upon Him – in Arabic: صلى الله عليه وسلم; salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam, also transliterated 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.
