The Jewish tribes of Arabia were ethnic groups professing the Jewish faith that inhabited the Arabian Peninsula before and during the advent of Islam. It is not always clear whether they were originally Israelite in ancestry, genealogically Arab tribes that converted to Judaism, or a mixture of both. In Islamic tradition the Jewish tribes of the Hejaz were seen as the offspring of the ancient Israelites. According to Muslim sources, they spoke a language other than Arabic, which Al-Tabari claims was Persian. This implies they were connected to the major Jewish center in Babylon. Certain Jewish traditions records the existence of nomadic tribes such as the Rechabites that converted to Judaism in antiquity. ==Tribes== Some of the Jewish tribes of Arabia historically attested include: *Banu Aws〔Norman A. Stillman, ''The Jews of Arab lands: a history and source book'', p. 117〕〔Dr. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, ''(Constitutional Analysis of the Constitution of Madina )'' (excerpt)〕 fled Syria under Ghassanid rule, then fled Yathrib (presently known as Medina), and after expulsion by Muhammed, back to Syria *Banu Harith or Banim Chorath〔〔 *Banu Jusham〔〔 *Banu Najjar〔〔 *Banu Ghifar *Banu Qaynuqa〔〔 *Banu Sa'ida〔〔 *Banu Shutayba〔〔 *Banu Yar'ak ba'si〔〔 *Banu Kinanah〔〔 *Jafna Clan of the Banu Thal'aba who were exiled members of the Banu Ghassan - while both tribes were not Jewish, they did have Jewish members; whereas the Jafna Clan was solely Jewish〔〔〔Moshe Gil, ''A history of Palestine, 634-1099'', p. 19〕 *Banu Zaura〔Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik (translator), ''Al-Qur'an, the Guidance for Mankind - English with Arabic Text'' (Hardcover) ISBN 0-911119-80-9〕 *Banu Zurayq〔〔 In Islamic lore, Labid ben Asam was a Jewish Jinn (Demon) who cast a spell on Muhammad that prevented him from having sexual relations with his wives〔Ibn Kathir, Trevor Le Gassick, ''The Life of the Prophet Muhammad: Al-Sira Al-Nabawiyya'', p. 227〕—thus no male offspring.
