Haditha ibn Ghudayya

Haditha ibn Ghudayya was an emir of the Al Fadl clan of the Banu Rabi'ah and a grandson of Fadl ibn Rabi'ah. Sultan al-Adil, Saladin's brother, founded the office of amir al-arab and named Haditha its first holder, placing the Bedouin of Damascus and Hama under his command.

The Kilab were later brought under him too, so that all the Bedouin tribes of northern Syria answered to him. He died around 1220, and Sultan al-Kamil divided the emirate between his sons Mani and Ali and their kinsman Ghannam.
