Information About

Banu Hashim




The Banu Hashim were one of the most important clans in the Quraish tribe at the time of Muhammad's birth. Its importance came from its role as the maintaners of the Kaaba . During Muhammad's early prophethood, his uncle, Abu Talib was head of the clan, and he subsequently faced heavy pressure from the rest of the Quraish tribe to keep his nephew in check. Despite this, Abu Talib never stopped supporting Muhammad. Abu Talib's son Ali was the first child Muslim and husband of Muhammad's daughter, Fatima Zahra . Abu Talib was amongst the first Muslims according to Shia, but according to Sunnis, he never said the Kalima and accordingly died a non-Muslim.
