In the Holy Qur\u2019an the Almighty variously says that the Almighty punished <em>Aal<\/em>-e-Frihon  (Pharaoh). It is evident that the punishment was not meted out only to  the family and progeny of Pharaoh. He did not have any offspring and the  punishment struck his followers as well. In certain connotations the  word excludes the member of the family. When we say that the Almighty  blessed the family of Abraham we exclude the transgressors among them  since the Almighty made it clear that his favors would not be bestowed  upon the transgressors among his family.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus  we can say that the word encompasses the family and the followers both.  It cannot be confined to the family in all cases. It can even exclude the family members from its application in some other instances. <\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">We believe that the term in the <em>durood-e ibrahimi<\/em>  should be explained in the light of the Holy Qur\u2019an. How was the family  of Abraham blessed? According to the Holy Qur\u2019an the progeny of Abraham  was blessed by being raised over other nations and made guides for  mankind. They were given special status of <em>Shahdah<\/em><em>-al-annas<\/em>  (being witness of the truth against other nations of the world). The  same status was transferred to the Bani Ismael (Ismalites) who were  replaced with the Israelites. Therefore the prayer is not confined to  the progeny of the Holy Prophet (sws). Rather it takes the family to  whom the Prophet belonged and his followers as well.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>I hope this covers your question.
