Remaining points about respecting Sayyids
* To honour everything that is associated with the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is a part of respecting him.[1]
* You are not required to see a certificate or have a degree of certainty to respect Sayyids. So, if someone says they are a Sayyid, you should respect them.[2]
* The one who falsely claims to be a Sayyid is cursed, and none of his obligatory (farḍ) or optional (nafl) worship is accepted.[3]
* If a heretic claims to be a Sayyid, and his heresy has reached disbelief (kufr), he certainly should not be respected.[4]
* Honouring Sayyids is to honour the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.[5]
* Teachers should refrain from hitting students who are Sayyid.[6]
* Sayyids can be employed for a role which does not involve any humiliation. It is impermissible to employ them for something which is degrading.[7]
