The Sealed Nectar

 The Sealed Nectar by Shaykh Safi ur-Rahman

1. Azd: Who, under the leadership of ‘Imran bin ‘Amr Muzaiqbâ’, wandered in Yemen, sent
pioneers and finally headed northwards. Details of their emigration can be summed up as
follows:
8

2. Tha‘labah bin ‘Amr left his tribe Al-Azd for Hijaz and dwelt between Tha‘labiyah and Dhi Qar.
When he gained strength, he headed for Madinah where he stayed. Of his seed are Aws and
Khazraj, sons of Haritha bin Tha‘labah.
Haritha bin ‘Amr, known as Khuza‘a, wandered with his folks in Hijaz until they came to Mar
Az-Zahran. Later, they conquered the Haram, and settled in Makkah after having driven
away its people, the tribe of Jurhum.

‘Imran bin ‘Amr and his folks went to ‘Oman where they established the tribe of Azd whose
children inhabited Tihama and were known as Azd-of-Shanu’a.
Jafna bin ‘Amr and his family, headed for Syria where he settled and initiated the kingdom
of Ghassan who was so named after a spring of water, in Hijaz, where they s topped on their
way to Syria.
2. Lakhm and Judham: Of whom was Nasr bin Rabi‘a, father of Manadhira, Kings of Heerah.
3. Banu Tai’: Who also emigrated northwards to settle by the so- called Aja and Salma
Mountains which were consequently named as Tai’ Mountains.
4. Kinda: Who dwelt in Bahrain but were expelled to Hadramout and Najd where they instituted
a powerful government but not for long , for the whole tribe soon faded away.

Another tribe of Himyar, known as Quda‘a, also left Yemen and dwelt in Samawa semidesert
on the borders of Iraq.
The Arabized Arabs go back in ancestry to their great grandfather Abraham (Peace be upon him)
from a town called “Ar” near Kufa on the west bank of the Euphrates in Iraq. Excavations brought to
light great details of the town, Abraham’s family, and the prevalent religions and social
circumstances.

It is known that Abrahaml (Peace be upon him) eft Ar for Harran and then for Palestine, which he
made headquarters for his Message. He wandered all over the area. When he went to E gypt, the
Pharaoh tried to do evil to his wife Sarah, but Allâh saved her and the Pharaoh’s wicked scheme
recoiled on him. He thus came to realize her strong attachment to Allâh, and, in acknowledgment of
her grace, the Pharaoh rendered his daughter Hagar at Sarah’s service, but Sarah gave Hagar to
Abraham as a wife.
