The titles and names of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), are the 99 names of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), used by Muslims, which are found mainly in the Quran and hadith literature. The Quran Kareem addresses Muhammad pbuh in the second person by various appellations; prophet, messenger, servant (abd) of God.
Islamic scholars strongly emphasize the need for Muslims to follow the name of ‘Muhammad’ (PBUH), whether spoken or written, with the honorific phrase “peace be upon him”, often abbreviated to PBUH or SAW, from Arabic: صلى الله عليه وسلم, Romanized: sallallahu alayhe wasallam or written ﷺ.
