Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was an ethnic Arab belonging to the Banu Hashim of the Quraysh, and most of the early Muslims were also Arabs. Ethnogenesis See also: Spread of Islam They are descended from the early Arab tribes of the linguistic, cultural, historical, and nationalist aspects.^[9] Mashriq The word Mashriq refers to the eastern part of the Arab world.^[10] Arabian Peninsula See also: Bedouin The seventh century saw the rise of Islam as the peninsula's dominant religion. The migrated to Medina in 622. From there, he and his companions united the tribes of Arabia under the banner of Islam and created a single Arab Muslim religious polity in the Arabian peninsula. Muhammad established a new unified polity which, under the subsequent Umayyad caliphates , saw a century of rapid expansion of Arab power well beyond the Arabian peninsula in the form of a vast Muslim Arab Empire. Levant See also: Levantines The Arabs of the Lakhmids.^[11] On the eve of the Rashidun Caliphate's conquest of the Levant in the 7th century, Arab tribes largely migrated to the Levant and Upper Mesopotamia with the Muslim armies in the mid-7th century.^[12] Egypt See also: Egyptians The caliphate also allowed the migration of Arab tribes to Egypt. The Muslim governor of Egypt encouraged the migration of tribes from the Arabian Peninsula to Egypt to increase the Muslim population in the region and to strengthen his regime by enlisting warrior tribesmen to his forces, encouraging them to bring their families and entire clans. The Fatimid era was the peak of Bedouin Arab tribal migrations to Egypt.^[13] Sudan See also: Sudanese Arabs In the 12th century, the Arab Bani Rasheed are also found on the Arabian Peninsula. They are related to the Banu Abs tribe.^[17] Maghreb The word Sahara Desert, but excluding Egypt and Sudan, which are considered to be located in the Mashriq — the eastern part of the Arab world.^[18] Following the death of Muhammad in 632 (11 Al-Fustat, Ifriqiya in Tunisia with its governing center being Kairouan, and the Maghreb (modern-day Algeria and Morocco), with its governing center being located in Fez.^[20] North Africa experienced three distinct invasions leading to the establishment of not only a new religion (Islam) but also a new language and norms that differed significantly from what was established by the indigenous inhabitants.^[21] Arabic is the main language of the region, though each country ( Mediterranean and the Middle East rather than Africa where they are geographically located.^[24] Berbers See also: Islamization refers to the process by which North Africans converted to Islam and thus became Muslims by faith. Though the majority of North Africans identify as Arabs today, a considerable number of the population perceive themselves as Berbers.^[27] Diaspora A substantial number of Arab Muslims live outside their countries of origin. Arab Muslims comprise the majority of the Arab populations in Belgium, France, Germany, Indonesia, Iran, Israel, the Netherlands, Turkey, and the United Kingdom, whilst Arab Christians are the majority of the Arab populations in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Greece, Haiti, Mexico, the United States, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
