Ahmad al-Badawi exploited Sufism to restore the Rafidi (Shiite) rule, and it was mentioned that he did not attend the five daily prayers. As for al-Desouqi, he was among the extremist Batini (esoteric) Shiites who tried to restore the rule of the Ubaydiyyun (Fatimids) under the guise of Sufism and asceticism. As for their lineage to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, there is no evidence to support that, and even if their lineage were true, it would not change the reality of their deviant actions.
