The period between Ishmael and ‘Adnan is variously estimated, some reckoning forty, others only seven generations. The authority of Abu ‘l-Fida, who makes it ten, is that generally followed by the Arabs, being founded on a tradition of one of Muhammad’s wives. Making every also waiters. however, for patriarchal longevity, even forty generations are insufficient to extend over a space of nearly 2,500 years. From ‘Adnan to Muhammad the genealogy is considered certain, comprehending twenty-one generations, and nearly 160 different tribes, all branching off from the same parent stem.
