Hashemite
The name of this Arab dynasty should not be confused with "Hashem", one of the names for God in Judaism
Hashemite (Arabic: هاشمي) (transliteration: Hashemi) traditionally refers to those belonging to the Banu Hashim, or "clan of Hashem", a clan within the larger Quraish tribe. It also refers to an Arab dynasty whose original strength stemmed from the network of tribal alliances and blood loyalties in the Hejaz region of Arabia, along the Red Sea.
The Hashemites trace their ancestry from Hashim ibn Abd al-Manaf (died c.510 CE), the great-grandfather of Muhammad. The early history of the Hashemites saw them in a continuous struggle against the Umayyads for control over who would be the caliph or successor to Muhammad. The Umayyads were of the same tribe as the Hashemites, but a different clan. This rivalry eventually would lead to the split between the Sunni and Shia. After the overthrow of the Umayyads, the Abbasids would present themselves as representatives of the Hashemites, as they claimed descent from Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib, an uncle of Muhammad.

As long as they respect my faith, which is to live in peace, and have the ability to free speak freely!

Wow, that would be silly - it's like claiming there was a bloodline from Jesus Christ, I mean, no one would take that seriously, like enough to make a book or movie, would they?

Yes, some claim to be descended from Madharmed.
Why anyone would admit to it is beyond me.

Probably. My mate Dave Christ is always claiming he's related to Jesus...
