The correct Hadeeth No. is 4384 in the book "Manla Yahdharuhul Faqeeh", Volume 3, Page 393 does not prohibit marriage between any Sayyeda with any non-Sayyed, as it is very clear in the next Hadeeth No. 4385, which clearly states that marriage between believers is permissible without the condition of being Sayyed or non-Sayyed. The Hadeeth number 4384 should be read completely, it states that the Prophet (peace be upon Him and his holy progeny) looked at the children of Ali and Jaffar and said: Our daughters are for our sons and our sons are for our daughters. It means that this narration was talking about the direct children of Imam Ali and his real brother Jaffar. The Proohet (SAWA) wanted the daughters of Jaffar Ibn AbiTalib (AS) to marry the sons of Imam Ali (AS) as it is narrated from Imam Al-Ridha (AS) in the book Fiqh Al-Richa

Our great Ulama have gone through all the authentic narrations from Ahlul Bayt (AS)  and gave clear verdict that marriage between Mo'min and Mo'mina is permissible without the condition of the caste. Our great Sayyid Ulama have given their daughters for marriage with non-Sayyed believers which is a practical evidence that it is permissible.

Bismihi ta'ala

There is no shar'i requirement for a Seyid/Seyidah to marry a Seyidah/Seyid. This is a personal preference and a cultural practice. It is also something that has taken a lot of negative direction to it as well, because some good suitors are being rejected because they are "non-seyids". 

Many of our esteemed Maraji' and great scholars who were Seyids have married their daughters off to non-Seyids, and that itself is enough for us to break this wrong practice that some families insist on observing.

And Allah knows best
