Can I print the sacred kalimah on a bill?

Assalamu Alaikum
My brother has a business and he was wondering if he can put on his bill “La Illaha Illallah Muhammadur Rasullullah”, can he? It wouldn’t be in arabic, it will be in the transliteration. Jazakallah
Answer:
Wa Alaikum As Salaam,
No, your bother should not put the sacred kalmia on his bill, even though it may be in transliteration form. Bills are normally thrown away, dump in garbage and destroyed after some time. If the Kalimah is on the bill, then a grave disrespect to the sacred Kalimah would take place in these cases.
