This article is about the Arabic tribe. For the archaeological site, see Ubaid period.

Al-Ubaid (Al-Obaidi) is one of the Arab tribes in Iraq settled around Al Jazira, Mesopotamia. It is an ancient, powerful and noble tribe which hails from the tribe of Zubaid and should not be confused with the Obaidah tribe of Saudi Arabia or the Obaidat tribe of Libya. Zubaid itself is an offshoot of the ancient yemenite tribe Madh'hij. The tribe migrated from Najd in Saudi Arabia circa 1750s The tribe was a very influential one which faced some rivalry from the House of Saud during the establishment of the first Saudi State. The Al-Obaidis were Emirs over part of Najd prior to their defeat by Al-Saud and their banishment to Iraq. The tribe directly descends from Amru bin Ma'adi Yakrib, a sahabi (companion) of the prophet Muhammad. Amru was known for his extreme bravery and valour, being one of the commanders of the muslim armies during the battles of Al-Qādisiyyah, Al-Yarmouk, and Nahawand. He was a martyr during the battle of Nahawand. He was honoured with the title Faris Al Arab (meaning Knight of the Arabs). He was a knight-king of Yemen before Islam coming from a long line of Kings.
