Thaheem (tribe)

The Thaheem (sometimes spelled "Thahim" or "Tahim") is a tribe found in the western plains of Punjab, Pakistan, mainly Multan, Chiniot as well as in parts of Sindh like Jacobabad and Sujawal where it is influential.[1][2] The most prominent member of this tribe was Saadullah Khan of Chiniot, a place where they still hold land.[3] Some allege the Thaheems to be of Arab origin, particularly from the Banu Tamim,[4] but others point out that they are a tribe of Jats.[5][6][7]
