While driving my suv, i noticed that when i am coming to a stop, the engine oil gauge needle takes a dip to low and causes the engine oil light to briefly come on and once the suv has stopped the needle on the gauge returns to normal and the light goes out. This only happens while the suv is slowing down to a stop.

Check your oil pressure using a mechanical gauge and remove the oil pressure sending unit to check it-if normal -replace the OPSU. If it continues could mean oil pump and engine bearings
