The following is the list of chiefs who are said to have ruled the Hejaz and to have been the patrilineal ancestors of Muhammad.^[4] His Ancestors were generally referred to by their laqabs or titles, names will be mentioned alongside each title.

Adnan to Isma'il[edit | edit source]

Islamic tradition and Arabic oral genetic tradition agree that the lineage from Adnan to Isma'il is lost. Nevertheless, there are records that survived, although they are deemed mere speculations by most scholars.^[9]

'Adnan was the ancestor of the 'Adnani Arabs of northern, central and western Arabia and a direct descendant of Isma'il.^[9] It is not confirmed how many generations are between them; however, Adnan was fairly close to him. According to the Hebrew Bible, Isma'il had twelve sons who are said to have become twelve tribal chiefs throughout the regions from Havilah to Shur (from Assyria to the border of Egypt).^[10]

Genealogists differ from which son of Isma'il the main line of descent came, either his eldest son Nabeet or Al-Nabt (Nebaioth), or his second son Qidar (Kedar) was the father of the North Arabian people that controlled the region between the Persian Gulf and the Sinai Peninsula.

Ibrahim to Adam[edit | edit source]

Scholars, both Islamic and Secular, agree that the narrations considering Ibrahim's lineage to Adam are mythology.^[11]^{[page needed]} Most of the lineage is borrowed from Hebrew tradition or Isra'iliyyat.

It is unclear how many generations are between Ibrahim and Nuh. Nuh's son Sam (Shem) is considered the ancestor of the Semitic race.^{[lower-alpha 2]} Template:Six Islamic Prophets

Notes[edit | edit source]

↑ Wathilah ibn al-Asqa narrated that Muhammad said "Indeed Allah chose Isma'il from the progeny of Ibrahim, chose the Banu Kinanah over other tribes from the children of Isma'il; He chose the Banu Quraish over other tribes of Kinanah; He chose Banu Hashim over the other families of the Quraish; and He chose me from Banu Hashim."^[5]^[6]

 ===Adnan to Isma'il===
