Origins

Banu Kaab are one of the first family in the middle east, their name means Kaaba. Many of them left the middle east to the maghreb like Tunisia Marrocco and other countries. In Tunisia, for example, Al-Kaabi Al-Kaibi Al-Kaaibi are from Kairaoun and they came to Tunisia with Okba Ibn Nafaa with the Aghaliba. This family exist before Islam and their native religion is Judaism. They are known by their good trade in the middle east.

Are you trying to say they are Jews? i doubt that and you have to provide some kind of proof for your claims.Akmal94 (talk) 13:28, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

One would be hard-pressed to find a tribe that before 600 CE (in the "Time of Ignorance") didn't have a non-Islamic religion. Throughout the Middle East, after the diaspora following the Roman destruction of al-Quds (70 CE), it would not be at all unlikely to find families that followed Judaism. That many such families converted to Islam is historical fact. Every current member of the "new religions" is descended from a convert. Of course, without citation to a reliable source for verification, no claim, such as that the ancestors of the current Banu Kaab were Jewish, should be made in a Wikipedia article. --Bejnar (talk) 20:57, 3 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
