Definition
A system of clan protection existed in Pre-Islamic Arabia, and people without a clan would stand without protection. Such a person could request for Istijarah (asylum) from a person already having a clan association in order to receive protection from that person. This was a common practice in Arabia,[1] this was used by some Muslims who returned from the first Migration to Abyssinia,[2] and Muhammad himself requested Istijarah from Mut'im ibn Adi after his return to Mecca from the visit to Ta'if.[1] The term is also used in the Qur'an.[1][3]
