Sons of Kings: Our royal heritage

[TheSunKing]

---

Did you know that....

... Even without a documented connection to a notable forebear, experts say the odds are virtually 100 percent that every person on Earth is descended from one royal personage or another.

... 80% of the British population is descended from a single king, Edward III.



,,, that Muhammad, the founder of Islam, appears on the family tree of every person in the Western world -- through the marriage of the Shiite -- Zaida, a daughter of the Imam of Seville to Alfonso VI after the defeat of Islam in Spain and her subsequent conversion to Catholicism.




Alfonso VI




Zaida, the Muslim princess of Seville -- who became
Isabel, Queen of Castile by virtue of her conversion to Catholicism and marriage to Alfonso VI
She was the grandmother of Isabel the Catholic who united Spain and conquered the Philippines

""" The proposed genealogy runs through Muhammad's daughter Fatima. Her husband, Ali, also a cousin of Muhammad, is considered by Shiite Muslims the legitimate heir to leadership of Islam.Ali and Fatima had a son, al-Hasan, who died in 670. About 300 years later, his ninth great-grandson, Ismail, carried the line to Europe when he became Imam of Seville.
Many genealogists dispute the connection between al-Hasan and Ismail, claiming it includes characters invented by medieval genealogists trying to link the Abbadid dynasty, founded by Ismail's son, to Muhammad.
The last emir in that dynasty was supposed to have had a daughter named Zaida, who is said to have changed her name to Isabel upon converting to Christianity and marrying King Alfonso VI.
Yet there is no good evidence demonstrating that Isabel, who bore one son by Alfonso VI, is the same person as Zaida. So the line between Muhammad and the English monarchs probably breaks at this point. But if you give the Zaida/Isabel story the benefit of the doubt, too, the line eventually leads to Isabel's fifth great-granddaughter, Maria de Padilla.
Maria married another king, Peter the Cruel. Their great-great-granddaughter was Queen Isabel. Her daughter Juana married a Hapsburg, and eventually gave rise to a Medici, a Bourbon and long line of Italian princes and dukes, spreading the Muhammadan line all over Europe.
Finally, 43 generations from Muhammad, there's an Italian princess, Marina Torlonia, whose granddaughter is Brooke Shields."""

My Spanish friend greatly admires Isabella I zealously, and calls her in endearing names. I'm sure he doesn't subscribe to this genealogy. The runaway Muslim princess Zaida who renamed herself Isabel and became Antonio VI wife and Isabella's grandmother is still being evaluated and there are many opposing views to it.
