Banu Hudhayl (Arabic: بنو هذيل) is an Arab tribe that originated in the Hejaz. The tribe mainly inhabits Saudi Arabia, Tunisia,[1] Jordan and Egypt. The tribe was one of the tribes in contact with the Islamic prophet Muhammad and they are known throughout history for their talented poets and intellectuals, as well as their help in repelling the Qarmatians in the 10th-century Sack of Mecca.[2]
