People often enquire, whether there any living descendants of the Prophet Mohammed alive today. The logical reason relates to him marrying and having children. There are even some families in South Africa heralding from the sub-continent who claim to be from the Prophets lineage and in some cases are treated like royalty. This topic although somewhat controversial attempts to discuss and raise awareness of what happened to many members of the Prophets family. At the onset this is neither a Shia Vs Sunni article and it is simply of a historical nature.
