Saaiduna Zaid Bin Arqam Radiallahu Anhu narrates that the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam delivered a sermon in which he said “I leave with you two weighty things- the first is the Book of Allah in which there is guidance and nuur, therefore, hold steadfast to the book of Allah… and my family- I remind you of Allah regarding my family, I remind you of Allah regarding my family.” (At-Taleeq us Sabih Sharah Mishkaat p.385 v.7)

The wives of the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam are included in the Ahle Bait. Allah (SWA) says in the Holy Qur’an:

“Allah only wishes to remove uncleanliness from you O Ahle Bait, and cleanse you with a thorough cleansing.” (Surah Ahzaab v.53)

Also Saaiduna Ali Radiallahu Anhu, Saaidah  Fatima Radiallahu Anha and Saaiduna Hasan and Hussain Radiallahu Anhuma. (Mishkatul Masabeeh p.560 v.2)

The grandsons of Saaiduna Abbas Radiallahu Anhu will be considered to be from “Aal Rasul ” and not Sayids or Ahle Bait. The “Aal Rasul” includes the family of Saaiduna Ali, Aqeel, Jafar and Abbas Radiallahu Anhum. (Aapke Masail p.390 v.3)
