History

A popular Arabic proverb seems to revolve around the progenitor of this tribe, Sa'd ibn Zayd Manat:

أوردها سعدٌ وسعدٌ مشتمل ما هكذا تورد يا سعد الإبل

"Sa'd watered them, but was still wearing his cloak. Camels are not to be watered thus, O Sa'd."

it is Malik, Sa'd's brother who said it. Because Sa'd did not take good care of the camels left to him to attend by his brother who was busy with his marriage.[3]
