The Bani Malik tribe:
Bani Malik (بني مالك) or Banu Malik (بنو مالك) (English: The Sons of Malik) is one of the major Arab tribes of the Arabian Peninsula. They are descendants of Malik al-Ashtar who fought with Ali ibn Abi Talib, the cousin of prophet Mohammad. Bani Malik comprises the following tribes:
Al-Ali
Al-Faraj
Al-Ismail
Al-Awabid
Al-Humaidat
Al-Ibrahim
Bani Rzaij
Bani Hasan (Bani Hesan)
A hyphenated Al (Al-) means "The" if it is prefixed to the tribe name but means "The son of..." if prefixed to a person's name, while the plain Al (آل) and Bani (بني) or Albu (ألبو) or Banu (بنو) mean the plural "The sons of..". Their great ancestor is Qahtan قحطان (the father of the Southern-Arabian Arabs who are the aboriginal stock of the Arabian peninsula). Qahtan is one of the two great fathers of all Arab tribes, the other one is Adnan (عد نان) and the father of the north Arabicized Arabs who are the naturalized stock of the northern peninsula. Bani Malik are an offshoot of a bigger tribe called Khuza'a (خزاعة) named after Khuza’a (also named Haritha) Ibn Amr Ibn Muzaqiba of Al-Azd the major Qahtani tribe. Khuza'a tribe fought with prophet Mohammad against the pagans and infidels Banu Bakr who tried to conquer Makka. This incident has been mentioned and blessed in a verse in the Holy Quran (Verse Al-Tawba-14). Sulaiman bin Kuthayer who is one of the Abbasid supporters descended from Bani Malik. He was later killed by Abu-Muslim AI-Khurasani a dissident Persian outlaw. Bani Malik lived in Ahwaz, Qatif, Bahrain and in Iraq. In Iraq, they now live in Basrah, Nassyriah and on the eastern bank of Euphrates River at AI-Diwanyiah district in the middle part of Iraq. The territory of their major offshoot, Al-Ali tribe, extends from AI-Diwanylah in the north to AI-Rumaitha to the south. The area was named after their name, Al-Ali. The rivers – AI-Rafi, AI-Yusufyia and AI-Lawah – irrigated the area. In 1900 when these rivers dried up they moved to an area around AI-Hindyiah branch of Euphrates River, which was dug by Asif AI-Dawla AI-Hindi at 1205 AH (1845 AD).
