What is meant by Shajrah Nasab?
Shajrah Nasab is a genealogy chart or family tree that traces the lineage and descent of an individual or family. It is commonly used in Muslim and Arab cultures to trace one’s ancestry and determine one’s tribal or clan affiliation.
“Shajrah” means tree, and “Nasab” means lineage or descent. A Shajrah Nasab typically includes ancestors’ names, birth and death dates, and other relevant information. The chart can be traced back several generations and is considered an essential aspect of one’s identity and social status in some cultures.
In Muslim cultures, tracing lineage through the father’s side is common. But in some cultures like South Asia, tracing lineage through the mother’s side is also common.

This is good information, however it need to be authenticated by historical sources, as there is still no clue when the first man was born? Such type of information should be published very carefully if there is little doubt. I m not saying that the information provided are wrong, however it need to be further scrutinized.

With regard to the family of al-Muttalib, it was stated in a report from Imaam Ahmad that they are among them [among the Ahl al-Bayt]. This is also the view of Imaam al-Shaafa’i. Imaam Abu Haneefah and Imaam Maalik were of the view that the family of Muttalib are not included in the family of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him); there is also a report to this effect from Ahmad. The correct view is that Banu ‘Abd al-Muttalib are among the Ahl al-Bayt. The evidence for that is the report narrated from Jubayr ibn Mut’im (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: “ ‘Uthmaan ibn ‘Affaan and I went to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, you have given to Banu’l-Muttalib and not to us, but we and they are the same in status with regard to you.’ The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘Banu’l-Muttalib and Banu Haashim are the same thing.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 2907; al-Nasaa’i, 4067; and others).
Included among the Ahl al-Bayt are Banu Haashim ibn ‘Abd Manaaf, who are the family of ‘Ali, the family of ‘Abbaas, the family of Ja’far, the family of ‘Aqeel and the family of al-Haarith ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib. This was stated in the report narrated by Imaam Ahmad from Zayd ibn Arqam (may Allaah be pleased with him), in which he said: “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) stood up and addressed us one day at a well called Khum, between Makkah and Madeenah. He praised Allaah and exhorted and reminded us. Then he said: ‘O people, I am a human being; soon the messenger of my Lord [i.e., the Angel of death] will come to me and I will answer his call. I am leaving among you two important things: the first of which is the Book of Allaah, in which there is guidance and light, so adhere to it and follow it’ – and he urged us to adhere to the Book of Allaah, then he said: ‘And the people of my household (ahl bayti). I remind you of Allaah with regard to the people of my household, I remind you of Allaah with regard to the people of my household, I remind you of Allaah with regard to the people of my household.’” Husayn said to him [Zayd], “Who are the people of his household, O Zayd? Are not his wives among the people of his household?” Zayd said: “His wives are among the people of his household, but the people of his household are those who are forbidden to receive sadaqah (charity) after his death.” He (Husayn) said: “Who are they?” He said: “They are the family of ‘Ali, the family of ‘Aqeel, the family of Ja’far and the family of ‘Abbaas.” Husayn said: “Are all of these forbidden to receive sadaqah?” Zayd said, “Yes.”
(Narrated by Ahmad, no. 18464)
