Prophet’s Descendants: More Privileged?
As-salamu `alaykum, respected scholars. Isn't it wrong to call oneself sayyid (Arabic for: noble one) and claim that one is a direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)? I don't think this is something that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have condoned. We will be judged by our actions and not by whose descendant we are. What difference does it make? Jazaka Allahu khayran.
