Question
Whats the difference between salat and salam on Nabi (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam)
Answer
When one takes the name of Rasulullah (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam), he is required to send salat & salam upon him.
(Surah Ahzab, verse: 56)
Salat is translated as: salutations, and salam as: peace.
Salat is generally sent with the words: ‘sallallahu’alayhi’
and salam is sent with the words: ‘wasallam’
The above is merely an example of the common forms of salat and salam.
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
