news-details

Kilaab Bin Murrah’ is the name where the lineages of the parents of the Holy Nabi صَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم join. A look at the names of the early ancestors shows that both the lineages merge into one. Historians have unanimously agreed that the lineage of the Beloved and Blessed Nabi صَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم up to ‘Adnan’ is authentically proved. However, there is a great difference of opinion over the names before it. Whenever the Holy Nabiصَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم described his lineage, heصَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم would describe it up to the name ‘Adnan’ only.


(Kirmaani with reference to footnote in Sahih Bukhari, vol. 1, pp. 543)

All historians have also agreed that ‘Adnan’ is descended from [i.e. related to] Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام who is the beloved son of Sayyiduna Ibraheem عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام.
