That seems daft to me.
You might do a brilliant picture of him and make him look all fit and sexy and stuff and your kid (Little Mo) might turn out to be a right bastard and spend his life dealing drugs and generally being a knob.
Surely that's a bigger disrespect of "The Prophet's" name than a scribbled drawing?
You bellend, the prophet is called Muhammad, not Mohammed. Read the bloody Quran.
Like most words originally employing a foreign alphabet, any spelling in English is a transliteration based on sounds (not letters) so spelling is irrelevant. Even pronunciation varies slightly from culture to culture. Obviously if you chose to spell the Prophet's name XGHTWSJY it wouldn't help.
