As noted above, Muhammad's name is often also followed – when speaking or writing – by the phrase "peace be upon him" (in English writing often abbreviated to PBUH), out of respect for him. This text was redundant and has been deleted. The same text/info appears twice above, in lead and in veneration section

While much of Islam was aniconistic during most of its history, there are rich traditions of visual representation of Muhammad, mainly in the form of paintings and illustrations in religious or hagiographical texts. Religious figures rarely have their face shown. Such figures are often shown with their head veiled in sheets embroidered with Quranic text. rewritten with citations
