Ghamd (tribe)
Résumé
Al-Ghamdi ( الغامدي, Al-Ghāmdī, also transliterated as Alghamdi, Ghamdi, or Ghamidi) is an Arabic family name denoting a member of the Ghamd tribe of Saudi Arabia.
The history of Ghamd goes back to the pre-Islamic era, and many members of Ghamd joined the forces of the early Muslim empire. The Alghamdi tribe belongs to the same root, Azd, as Al-Ansar. Al-Ansar are the two tribes which inhabited Madina, named Banu Khazraj and the Banu Aus, sheltered, supported, and fought with Muhammad in the early days of Islam when he and his early companions from Mecca had to leave it for Madina. Many members of Alghamdi tribe were companions of Muhammad and fought with him. Like most other tribes in the Hejaz region of the country, Ghamd is divided into three large groups, based on geography and lifestyle: the mountaineers (Hejaz) in the central highlands of Al-Baha, the bedouins (badyah) in the desert regions in Najd east of Hejaz, also in some parts of Bisha in Asir Region, and the tohm who inhabit the narrow plain of Tihama on the Red Sea coast.
There is no doubt that Ghamid is one of the oldest and largest tribes of the Arabian Peninsula, and one of the few tribes that have been known by name and tribal presence since pre-Islamic times until the present time, and the tribe is still in its homes. The Islamic conquests had a great impact on changing the demographics of the tribes of the Arabian Peninsula, and Ghamid is one of the tribes that was affected by this Arab-Islamic tide, so many of her sons went to the Islamic frontiers for jihad, and many of them migrated to the Islamic cities, east and west, and the news of most of the tribe’s leaving the land of Hijaz disappeared.
When Abraha the Abyssinian passed along the lands of Al-Azd on his way to Mecca to demolish the Kaaba, he sent cavalry to conquer the Azd tribes, but Ghamid tribe confronted them, and defeated the cavalries.
The most prominent battles of Ghamid in pre-Islamic Arabia :
1- The battle of Dhi Ghalef: and they had it against Lahab tribe: Lahab was a great tribe of Al-Azd.
