say the Prophet's lineage to Adam was a clean and virtuous lineage.

5. The lineage proven from Hadith?
Lineage of the Prophet to Adnan is proven by the Prophet himself. However, some have drawn
the lineage to Ismail & Adam.
All the genealogists accept the lineage to Adnan but to Ismail and Adam there is not
authentic report. Although Hafiz Ibn Hajar has recorded it in his book Fathul Bari with
another eight chains to Ibrahim.
As Abdullah ibn Abbas narrates whenever the Prophet would talk about the ancestor he
would not mention beyond Adnan, he would stop and say the genealogists have
erred.

life, after which they came to life and believed in him. They were then
returned to death. Reported by Imam Qurtubi, tafsir qurstubi 2/408, Imam
suyuti in Masalik al Hanfa'li and by Bajuri. This incident is mentioned by

hell fire, he responded , may curse be upon that person as Allah says
whoever abuses Allah and his messenger allah's curse is on them and in the
hereafter. He has prepared a humiliating punishment for him.
