There is a common claim circulated in Christian Arab circles with regard to the beatific phrase sallallahu `alayhi was-sallam which comes as an eulogy to the Prophet’s name. It was first propagated in the English-speaking world by the Christian Arab missionary, Anis Shorrosh, who claims that this eulogy does not literally mean “peace be upon him” but “occurs in the Quranic text” and: …literally reads, “Lo!

It is with this “mission” in mind that they have started to infiltrate countries where the majority of Muslims do not habitually read or speak Arabic. The missionaries have begun selling images which mirrors the calligraphy often found in Qur’anic verses, but instead of the usual Qur’anic verses, they cite verses from the Arabic Bible instead. This truly displays the deception of the missionaries in order to dupe gullible Muslims to their cause….Read More
