Kinana (Arabic: كِنَاَنَة, romanized: Kināna) is an Arab tribe based around Mecca in the Tihama coastal area and the Hejaz mountains.[1] The Quraysh of Mecca, the tribe of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, was an offshoot of the Kinana. A number of modern-day tribes throughout the Arab world trace their lineage to the tribe.[2]
