Family tree of Shaiba ibn Hashim

Okay kiddo, so Shaiba ibn Hashim was a man who lived a very long time ago in a place called Arabia. Shaiba had a big family with lots of brothers and sisters, parents, and grandparents. Some of the important people in Shaiba's family are:

1. Hashim - Shaiba's father, who was the leader of their tribe
2. Abdul Muttalib - Shaiba's grandfather, who was also a tribal leader and famous for finding a well that brought water to their city.
3. Prophet Muhammad - Shaiba's nephew, who became a very important leader and religious figure in Arabia.

So, let's draw a picture of Shaiba's family tree, starting with Shaiba at the bottom.

Abdul Muttalib Prophet Muhammad

As you can see, Shaiba's father was Hashim, who had three sons: Abdul Muttalib, Al Muttalib, and Abu Talib, as well as another son named Abdullah who was Shaiba's younger brother.

Abdul Muttalib was a very important figure in their tribe, and he had 10 sons, one of whom was Prophet Muhammad. So, that makes Shaiba Muhammad's uncle!

I hope that helps you understand a bit more about Shaiba's family tree, kiddo!
