They say that it is known that ʿAbbās I, his children and the Banū ʿAbd al-

Muṭṭalib do not fall part of this ḥadīth (because they were in Makkah). 1

The answer to this proof is the very same as the above as well, i.e. explicit mention

takes precedence over inference.

Proof 4:

The following ḥadīth which has many variant transmissions:

اللهم صل على محمد وعلى آل محمد

O Allah send salutations upon Muḥammad and the Āl of Muḥammad. 2

And in another version which is narrated by Abū Ḥumayd al-Sāʿidī the following

appears:

اللهم صلى على محمد وأزواجه وذريته

O Allah send salutations upon Muḥammad, his wives and his children. 3

The second version suggests that only the wives and the children of Nabī H

are meant by Āl. 4

The answer to this proof is that in the narration of Abū Hurayrah I all three

have been mentioned together, i.e. Nabī H, his wives and children, and his

Āl. The narration reads as follows:

1 Jilāʾ al-Afhām p. 217.

2 The narration of Kaʿb ibn ʿUjrah which appears in Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī: chapter of Tafsīr: cub-chapter

regarding the verse: اهللَ‏ وَ‏ مَ‏ الَ‏ ئِكَ‏ تَهُ‏ يُصَ‏ لُّ‏ ونَ‏ عَ‏ لَ‏ الناَّبِيِّ‏ ‏:إِناَّ‏ ḥadīth no. ;4519 Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim: chapter of Ṣalāh:

subchapter regarding salutations upon Nabī H after the Tashahhud: ḥadīth no. 406.

3 Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī: chapter of supplications: sub-chapter regarding the whether salutations can

be sent to others besides Nabī H: ḥadīth no. 5999; Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim: chapter of Ṣalāh; subchapter

regarding salutations upon Nabī H after the Tashahhud: ḥadīth no. 407.
