Family_tree_of_Muhammad"][COLOR=#0000ff]Family tree of Muhammad
Muhammad traced his
genealogy as follows:
Muhammad was born into the
Quraysh tribe. He is the son of
Abd Allah, who is son of
Abd al-Muttalib (Shaiba) son of
Hashim (Amr) ibn Abd Manaf (al-Mughira) son of Qusai (Zaid) ibn Kilab ibn Murra son of Ka'b ibn Lu'ay son of Ghalib ibn Fahr (
Quraish) son of Malik ibn an-Nadr (Qais) the son of Kinana son of Khuzaimah son of Mudrikah (Amir) son of Ilyas son of
Mudar son of Nizar son of Ma'ad ibn
Adnan, whom the northern
Arabs believed to be their common ancestor. Adnan in turn is said to have been a descendant of
Ishmael, son of
Abraham. (
ibn means "son of" in Arabic; alternate names of people with two names are given in parentheses.)
[20]
He was also called
Abu-Qaasim (meaning "father of Qaasim") by some, after his short-lived first son.
I wonder what would have happened if some Hollywood film producer had unearthed some so called evidence that Muhammed wasn't the son of Abd Allah, and therefore not a prophet descended from Abraham?
