It’s actually surprisingly easy to write a simple WordPress plugin masha’Allah… especially the one above, which is essentially one function. :D I will definitely be writing more if and when the need arises. It’s quite fun. [/nerd] :P

Salaam alaikum,
Does any techie out there know how we could use these inline in MS Word etc? I do translation work and these would be very beneficial. Thanks.

Wa ‘alaykum salam wa rahmatullah
The SAW graphic is based on the unicode symbol: ﷺ. The other graphics bar SWT were based on the font “Islamic Phrases”, designed by AlMedia.net, which is available to download for free, for personal use only, from http://www.almedia.net/free-arabic-fonts.htm. Therefore you could create custom keyboard shortcuts in Word to quickly insert these symbols insha’Allah.
I found the SWT symbol online, and re-drew it as it was not very good quality.
That’s the only one you would not be able to embed as easily… perhaps you could use a keyboard shortcut to embed the image… not sure if that’s possible. Or perhaps you could generate your own font (Google for more info) and do as above insha’Allah.

You might also be able to use Word’s autocorrect function, and use a similar shortcode system, e.g., where [saw] is replaced with the unicode symbol.

You could also use AutoHotkey and then you could use it in all applications supporting UTF-8 font.

Jazak Allah for the work and it looks very beautiful.
Inshallah, I will use it when required. However, they are so small and cannot be easily read by a person who is not well accustomed to these greetings and phrases. A convert or even not a well educated muslim does not know the difference between anha, anhu, and anhum. The greeting after the prophets name is obvious. Most people know that but not others. So, I think we should still write out in some cases.
This is only my opinion.

Salam Mariya
Thanks for bringing up this point. I have now added alt and title text to the images, so if you place your mouse pointer over the Islamic graphic you should see the transliterated phrase and the meaning in English. E.g., raḥimahā Allāh (may Allah have mercy upon her). I hope this will make things easier for those who are not familiar with the phrases insha’Allah. :)

I have a request nor an idea, it is better if you can add in a short form of SWT – subhanallah taala.

Great effort! This reminds me of the “Islamic Praise” plugin from Usayd Networks:
http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/wiki/IslamicPraise Perhaps you could take a look at this plugin and incorporate any feature not already in this plugin from that one.
