Family tree? edit

This family tree does not add-up, even in the text: "His father was Wa'il ibn Umayya, also known as Abu al-As. His uncle was Affan ibn Wa'il the father of Uthman,".

If his FATHER was Wa'il, then he is Hakam ibn Wail. Then, Affan ibn Wa'il would be his brother not his uncle! This man is Caliph Uthman's uncle, not his cousin!--Khodadad 02:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
