Al Zaabi (Arabic: الزعابي), (plural: Za'ab) is the surname carried by members of the Al Zaab tribe in the United Arab Emirates who originally mostly lived in Al Jazirah Al Hamra in what is today the emirate of Ras al-Khaimah. Some of the tribe migrated to Abu Dhabi after a clash between the tribe and Sheikh Saqr bin Muhammad of Ras Al-Khaimah. Abu Dhabi provided shelter to the major part of the tribe, and its ruler Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan provided them with land, which became the Al Za'ab neighbourhood. In the very tribal political system of the United Arab Emirates, the Za'ab became a powerful force in the federal ministry of foreign affairs, and many members of the tribe were appointed as overseas ambassadors. == Important members of the tribe == * H.E Nasser Bin Abdulla Bin Hamdan Al Zaabi, Former UAE Ambassador, in Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
