Nizar ibn Ma'ad

Nizar ibn Ma'ad ibn Adnan (Arabic: نزار بن معد بن عدنان‎) is the common ancestor of most of the northern Arab tribes (the Adnanites). As a result, the term Nizar, or Nizariyya (نزارية), has been used as a loosely defined name for a group of tribes, most commonly containing the Rabi'a and Mudhar tribes, but occasionally being extended to include others.
