Khuzāʿah
The Banū Khuzāʿah (بنو خزاعة) are an Azdite, Qahtanite tribe historically significant in Arabia. They ruled Mecca and the Hejaz region for approximately 500 years before the advent of Islam and served as custodians of the Kaaba prior to the Quraysh. The tribe has notable ancestral links debated between Qahtanite and Adnanite origins, and many members continue to reside in Mecca and across the Middle East. They played a crucial role in the pre-Islamic history of Mecca and early Islamic tribal dynamics.
