I'm Sudanese, and my family is originally from Al Jazirah. We belong to a large lineage known as الحجراب (Hagarab), and many people associated with it use حجر as their surname.

There's an oral story in my family that our ancestor, Hagar, was a farmer who supposedly used witchcraft to make British colonialists believe his farmland was stone (حجر). I don't know how historically accurate this story is or whether it's commonly told between other Hagarab.

I've encountered people with this lineage or surname in many different places, so I'm curious whether الحجراب are considered a tribe, a clan, or a large extended family, and what their historical origins and branches might be.

Does anyone recognize this lineage or know of any reliable genealogical sources, books, or family histories that discuss it? I'd especially appreciate information about its origins and historical distribution.

شكراً مقدماً لأي زول عنده معلومة موثوقة.

I live in UAE, Al Ain. 26F

Looking for fun, smart, and ambitious friends 😁

اهلاً أنا لي فوق السنة في ماليزيا وكل مرا ما بتوفق في السكن هل في زول بيعرف سكن جمب جامعة لينكولن يكون ماستر او ستوديو

Ever since it happened, we, the youth, have been paying in blood.

The youth who died in the protests leading up to the "revolution"

The qiyada massacre..

The civil war..

The hundreds of youth who were recently killed by Egyptian planes..

Meanwhile the civilian politicians, the army, the RSF and the UAE are trading with our blood to achieve whatever political objective they have.

As someone who actively took part in the protests, and jailed during it, I deeply regret for being so blind to what was plainly obvious at the time. That this was just another color revolution orchestrated by the usual suspects.

Hello, I am looking for a Sudanese doctor or doctor that deployed to Sudan for a podcast. The discussion would center around medical care amidst the war. The podcast is pretty big so the doctor can promote local initiatives and charities. Please write me back if you or someone you know is interested.

I’m building Hawiya (هوية), a free Discord community bringing together nearly 400 Arabic-speaking members from across the Arab world!

The idea is simple: a place where Arabs, whether at home or abroad, can connect, make friends, and feel a little closer to home.

Here’s what you’ll find:

🌍 Meet fellow Arabs: Make friends from different countries, with a dedicated #sudan channel for Sudanese members!

💼 Help each other out: Share experiences, career advice, and tips on living or moving abroad.

❤️** Celebrate our culture**: Share stories, traditions, everyday conversations, and help people learning Arabic.

No pressure to stay active! Life gets busy, so come and go whenever you feel like it. The community will always be there.

🔗 Join Hawiya: https://discord.gg/kWNvk6qDxr

If you join, drop a quick salam in #introductions so we can get to know you! 🫶

I understand that most of what we see on social media is propaganda for either one party or another (and its useless to engage with) but it’s disappointing how so many intellectuals with great pattern-recognition skills just keep to themselves.

No one gets to hear what we know because we never share and I think thats why people don’t care actually.

عشان ان بصدق اي حاجة بشوفها

Sudan has gone through multiple long and devastating civil wars, yet we keep repeating the same patterns.

When our side kills civilians, we cheer. When the other side does it, they're barbarians. Our side are the angels, the other side is the devil. And if we criticize our own side, we're accused of being traitors.

I've been reading about collective narcissism, the idea that people become so invested in their group's image that admitting its wrongdoing feels like an attack on their identity.

But if we condemn an act only when our enemies commit it, do we actually stand for a principle, or are we just defending our group?

How can Sudan ever break this cycle if loyalty matters more than accountability?

I'd like to hear from Sudanese people and others who've seen similar patterns in their own societies.

Has anyone experienced any kind of harassment at a workplace ? Specifically from 50+ managers? What are the signs? I might be tripping but i feel like this person is harassing me at work I’ve just joined this place as an intern and the vibes from this person are off, he keeps doing things that makes me uncomfortable What is the work culture in sudan in general ?

كنت دايرة أسأل لو في سودانيات هنا اتزوجن زول ما سوداني، خصوصاً لو من ثقافة مختلفة تماماً من ثقافتنا.
للبمرن بنفس التجربة، أهاليكم كان رد فعلهم شنو لمن قلتوا ليهم؟ اتقبلوا الموضوع من البداية ولا واجهتوا رفض ومشاكل؟ ولو كانوا رافضين في الأول، مع الزمن اتقبلوا الفكرة؟ وكيف فتحتوا معاهم الموضوع واتكلمتوا معاهم عنو؟
بكون ممتنة شديد لو شاركتوني تجاربكم الشخصية وأي نصايح عندكم، خصوصاً السودانيات الاتزوجن صوماليين أو رجال من ثقافات مختلفة تماماً من ثقافتنا. أنا بس دايرة أسمع من ناس فاهمين طبيعة الأسر السودانية وعاداتنا وتقاليدنا، وعارفين الموضوع دا ممكن يكون حساس كيف مع أهلنا.

I wanted to ask if there are any Sudanese women here who married someone who isn’t Sudanese, especially someone from a completely different culture.

For those of you who’ve been in a similar situation, how did your families react when you told them? Were they accepting from the beginning, or did you face rejection and difficulties? If they were against it at first, did they eventually come around? And how did you approach the conversation with them?

I’d really appreciate hearing your personal experiences and any advice you have, especially from women who married Somali men or men from completely different cultures. I just want to hear from people who understand Sudanese families and our culture.

Whatever is happening between sudan and Egypt is obviously (Zionist / uae / Ethiopia)

Like ur telling me they bombed the sudanese on sudanese soil and then not 24 hrs later two Egyptian drivers were shot in Khartoum and all of this after burhan went and met al seesy in cairo about the river nile water and the Ethiopian dam?
