Al Baha is the homeland of Zahran and Ghamid.[4] However, many tribes that descend from Zahran and Azd migrated to Oman and Tanukh (Levant) under leadership of Malik bin Fehm in the 3rd century.[5] Oman's modern royal family, Al Said, is said to descend from Zahran through Malik ibn Fehm.[6] Moreover, many currently live in Mecca, Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam due to large migration from villages and small cities during the 1960s and 1970s in search of a better life.
Zahran is a well-known tribe before and after Islam. Many of them left their houses, homes, and relatives and joined the Prophet Mohammed in Medina.[4]
