Indefinite noun

وَسَلَـٰمٌ (And peace be) has no ال and takes tanwīn (the "n" sound at the end), so it means "a" or "some" — not a specific one.

We translate it as "a/an" or leave it general.

Conjunction وَ (and)

وَسَلَـٰمٌ (And peace be) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".

We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

And peace be upon him the day he was born and the day he dies and the day he is raised alive.
