Tribes of Arabia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arab lineages allegedly originate from three groups:

Perishing Arabs: These are the ancients of whose history little is known. They include ‘Ad, Thamud, Tasam, Jadis, Imlaq and others.

Pure Arabs: They allegedly originated from the progeny of Ya‘rub bin Yashjub bin Qahtan so were also called Qahtanian Arabs.

Arabized Arabs: They allegedly originated from the progeny of Ishmael and were also called ‘Adnanian Arabs. The Quraish are a branch of the "Arabized Arabs".

Below is a partial list of the tribes of Arabia. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
