Everything about Ghamid totally explained
Ghamid is an
Arab tribe originating primarily from the region of
Al-Bahah in southwestern
Saudi Arabia. The tribe is of
South Arabian stock (see
Qahtan), and is believed to be closely related to the neighboring tribe of
Zahran. The history of Ghamid goes back to the pre-Islamic era, and many members of Ghamid joined the forces of the early
Muslim empire. Though no exact or reliable statistics exist, Ghamid today is generally considered one of the larger tribes in Saudi Arabia in terms of membership. Like most other tribes in the southwestern region of the country, Ghamid is divided into three large groups, based on geography and lifestyle: the mountaineers (
sarat) in the central highlands of Al-Baha and 'Asir, the
bedouins (
badyah) in the desert regions to the east, and the
tohm who inhabit the narrow plain of
Tihama on the
Red Sea coast. Their religion is almost entirely
Sunni Muslim. Like other tribes from the southwestern region, many members of Ghamid (called
Ghamdis in
Arabic) have emigrated in recent decades to the three major metropolitan centers of Saudi Arabia, namely
Riyadh,
Jeddah, and
Dammam, in search of better education and employment.
