Slight correction

Bism Allah al-Rahman al-Rahim is the transliteration and when this sentence is recited/vocalized it becomes: Bi-smi-l - la - hi-r-rah-ma - ni-r-ra-heem (see Cook)

So would you tell Mullah Ahmad to write it as: Bism etc... or as Bi-smi-l etc...? I suspect that you will tell him to use the Bism etc...if so why do you want to tell him that his version of al-salamu 3alikum is correct?
