<<We should research whether the appropriate acronym wouldn't rather be AAEH
(AA 'eved haShem). Didn't someone once post sometzhing about this on Avodah?
R. Seth Mandel perhaps?>>

It was an article by R. Michael Broyde, in which we proved fairly 
conclusively that the acronym AH originally stood for Eved HaShem, not Alav 
HaShalom, which probably derives from the Muslim "peace be upon him".
