Therefore, he had a ring made in order to stamp letters to foreign leaders. The Holy Prophet sa had the ring cast in silver. He was so filled with love and reverence for Allah that he did not want to place his name over the name of Allah. Contrary to the normal way of reading from top to bottom, he had written upwards, “Muhammad Ras u l Allah”. The original seal is on display at Topkapi Palace Museum in Istanbul, Turkey along with other relics of the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa.
