Naming a shop or business "LIMRA"

Q: Is it permissible to keep the shop name or business name as "LIMRA". More people are using this name which is short form of "La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadur Rasoolullah" (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).

A: This type of abbreviation is not at all liked.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
