The ‘Ali Yemen, perhaps more than any other state ‘Abdullah Salih regime depends essentially on in the Arab world, is fundamentally a tribal only two tribes, although it can expect to rely society and nation. To a very large degree, on the tribally dominated military and security social standing in Yemen is defined by tribal forces in general. But tribesmen in these membership. The tribesman is the norm of institutions are likely to be motivated by career society. Other Yemenis either hold a roughly considerations as much or more than tribal equal status to the tribesman, for example, the identity. Some shaykhs also serve as officers sayyids and the qadi families, or they are but their control over their own tribes is often inferior, such as the muzayyins and the suspect. Many tribes oppose the government akhdam. The tribes in Yemen hold far greater in general on grounds of autonomy and self- importance vis-à-vis the state than elsewhere interest. The Republic of Yemen (ROY) and continue to challenge the state on various government can expect to face tribal resistance levels. At the same time, a broad swath of to its authority if it moves aggressively or central Yemen below the Zaydi-Shafi‘i divide – inappropriately in both north and south. But including the highlands north and south of it should be stressed that tribal attitudes do Ta‘izz and in the Tihamah coastal plain – not differ fundamentally from the attitudes of consists of a more peasantized society where other Yemenis and that tribes often seek to tribal ties and reliance is muted.

  • The Prophet's Family

    The Prophet's Family

    The Prophet’s Family The Prophet’s Family Line No 1 – Adam to the Banu Khuza’ah (Based on material gathered from Islamic and Biblical sources) by Sr. Ruqaiyyah Waris Maqsood. The family line of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is one of the most cherished in history. It is extremely well-known from Muhammad to Adnan, but there are variants from Adnan to Isma’il. From Isma’il back to Adam, the line corresponds exactly to the names of the descendants of Adam as given in the Old Testament of the Bible. The generally accepted line of Muhammad goes like this: Muhammad b. Abdullah b. Shaybah (Abdu’l Muttalib b. Amr (Hashim) b. Mughirah (Abdu’l Manaf) b. Zayd (Qusayy) b. Kilab b. Murrah b. Ka’b b. Lu’ayy b. Ghalib b. Fihr b. Malik b. Nadr b. Kinanah b. Khuzaymah b. Amir (Mudrika) b. Ilyas b. Mudar b. Nizar b. Ma’add b. Adnan b. Udd (Udad) b. Muqawwam b. Nahur b. Tayrah b. Yarub b. Yashjub b. Nabut b. Isma’il b. Ibrahim b. Tarih (Azar) b. Nahur b. Sarugh b. Ra’u b. Falikh b. Aybar b. Shalikh b. Arfakhshadh b. Sam b. Nuh b. Lamk b. Mattushalakh b. Akhnukh b. Yard b. Mahla’il b. Qaynan b. Yanish b. Shith b. Adam. Arabs and Jews both descended from the same Patriarch Page 1 of 56 The Prophet’s Family It is commonplace for people to think of the Jews and the Arabs as completely different peoples, and a study of the Old Testament reveals an ongoing conflict between the Banu Isra’il and their enemies on both sides of the river Jordan (which sadly continues into this 21st century!).
