Abstract

It is necessary to study the socio-political life of the Arab tribes and their reaction to Islam to know the early history of Islam. One of the most powerful tribes in the north of the Arabian Peninsula was Bani Kalb b. Wabara, resisted the acceptance of Islam until the last years of the Prophet's life, relying on geopolitical interests.The attribution to Yemen, the vast geography, the leadership of the judiciary, and the religion were the cause of the solidarity of the kalbis who sought to preserve it. Therefore, the leading research tries to answer with an analytical-descriptive method of how this tribe treats Islam and studies the effective geopolitical factors in it, as a result of which the strategy of the Prophet has also been studied. The results of the research show that the people of the Kalb tribe, depending on their political geography, confronted the Muslims as much as possible, and it was only after the actions of the Prophet in reforming their interests that they converted to Islam.
