Answer:

The Bedouin or Bedu (/ˈbɛduɪn/;[8] Arabic: بَدْو‎, romanized: badw, singular بَدَوِي badawī) is a population of nomadic Arabs who have historically inhabited the desert regions in North Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, Upper Mesopotamia and the Levant.[9] The English word bedouin comes from the Arabic badawī, which means "desert dweller", and is traditionally contrasted with ḥāḍir, the term for sedentary people.[10] Bedouin territory stretches from the vast deserts of North Africa to the rocky sands of the Middle East.[11] They are traditionally divided into tribes, or clans (known in Arabic as ʿašāʾir; عَشَائِر), and historically share a common culture of herding camels and goats.[11] The vast majority of Bedouin adhere to Islam, although there are some fewer numbers of Arab Christian Bedouins present in the Fertile Crescent.[12][5][6][7]
