Tabikha ibn Ilyas (Arabic: طابخة بن إلياس), also known as 'Amr was a tribal leader in the era of pre-Islamic Arabia. Among his descendants include the famous Banu Tamim tribe.

Family

[edit]

The real name of Tabikha was 'Amr ibn Ilyas; he had two other brothers with the birthnames 'Amir and 'Umayr whom were later known by the names Mudrikah and Qam'ah respectively.[1] Tabikha's father was Ilyas ibn Mudar, while his mother was a woman known as Khindif.[2]

The lineage of Tabikha can be traced back to Adnan: Tabikha, son of Ilyas, son of Mudar, son of Nizar, son of Ma'ad, son of Adnan.[3] Hence, Tabikha is an Adnanite Arab and also a descendant of Ishmael, as is the case for all the Adnanites.[4]

Descendants

[edit]

Amongst the descendants of Tabikha ibn Ilyas include these three tribes:

  • Banu Tamim: Descended from Tamim ibn Murr, their lineage back to Tabikha from Tamim is traced as Tamim, son of Murr, son of 'Udd, son of Tabikha.
  • Banu Dabbah: Descended from Dabbah ibn 'Udd, who is the grandson of Tabikha.[5]
  • Banu Muzaina: Descended from Muzaina ibn 'Udd, another grandson of Tabikha.[6]
