Despite the talk of these Arab tribes, a small part of them, Sudan nevertheless occupies its place in the Arab Islamic family, not because its national history preserves much for us about the spread of Arab tribes and their settlement in the regions of that homeland, but because the Arab Islamic character is the dominant trait and characteristic that has marked Arab Sudan for many centuries before the birth of Christ. The Arab migration movement from the Arabian Peninsula and other neighboring regions to Sudan continued, starting from that vast and spacious place where this migrating movement finds comfort until modern times. Migration has not ceased since ancient times from Sinai, Egypt, Hijaz, and the south of the Peninsula until the modern era, despite the conditions of control in Egypt and the Arab Maghreb in its various divisions. This is because Sudan was the safe and stable stronghold to which Arab migrations resorted in times of distress when the rulers in neighboring countries became constricted towards those tribes. From here, they found their way to that Arab Islamic expanse. Among these vast modern Arab migrations is the migration of the Rashaida tribe. Al-Rashaida: The migration of these Rashaida to Sudan occurred in the late nineteenth century AD, specifically in the period between the years (1846-1877 AD). They spread in the region of the Arab Red Sea coast in the area near Furura. Their migration was slow, and it is clear from the accounts of the Rashaida themselves that they migrated from Hijaz to Sudan during the Turco-Egyptian era. Their migration was due to a conflict that occurred between them and the tribes of Hijaz. They crossed the Red Sea with about a thousand men, along with their families, their camels, and their equipment, from Jeddah to the land of Habab in 1871 AD. These Rashaida were spread throughout the Arabian Peninsula from Najd to Barzan and around Mecca Al-Mukarramah, Medina Al-Munawwarah, Jeddah, and Al-Ghusn. Their migration was due to a dispute between them and their rulers, the Sharifs of Mecca Al-Mukarramah, whose ruler was Sharif Aun Pasha. Their descent into Sudan occurred at a time when Ala' al-Din Pasha was the ruler of Suakin. These Rashaida were owners of camels and sheep.
