Are the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) descendants still present today?

Question:
You mentioned that charity for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family is not permissible. Are the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) family still present today?

Answer:
I did not say that charity is forbidden for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the family of Muhammad. I said it is forbidden for Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, meaning the Banu Hashim. It is for the Banu Hashim and the Banu Muttalib, his maternal uncle’s descendants, who did not leave him, who did not leave him in supporting him in Makkah when the polytheists besieged him in the Shawb. They stood with him, and the Banu Muttalib stood with him and endured with him. Therefore, they took on the ruling of the Banu Hashim, and charity is forbidden for them according to some scholars. Others say that charity is only forbidden for the Banu Hashim, who are the family of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
