Who is the "Hussein" mentioned in the last paragraph as having 4 sons? Is he the same as Husain ibn Ali from the previous paragraph? If so, please standardize the spelling. If not, please explain who he is -- he was not mentioned earlier in the article. - 128.220.117.40 17:12, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

It would appear that this is the case. I have altered the article for clarification. - Cybjorg 12:11, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sunni

This is not to be rude, but rather I am curious, being that I myself am not a Muslim; why is the Hashemite family Sunni rather than Shi'a. Don't the Shi'a portion believe that the descendets of The Prophet ought to be the rightful rulers? Please explain.

-- I'm not sure that this is actually true, or at least the explanation provided in this article. I had always thought that Ummayads and Abbasids were both Sunni.

[edit] Morocco

Isn't (wasn't) Morocco ruled by a Hashemite dynasty as well? - idiotoff 22:50, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jordanien

The name of this Arab dynasty should not be confused with "Hashem", one of the names for God ??? - There is no name of God = Hashem?, I guess, and even it is existed it will be AL-Hashem , no Hashem, it is different Donquimico 00:11, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
