Levantine Shia versus Arab Shitte[edit]

The article references Levantine Shia as “Arab Shitte”. Shias from the Levant are Levantine Shia and should be referred to as this. They are from the Levant. Lebanesebebe123 (talk) 04:13, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You think that only Arabian tribes are Arabs, but that is a fringe position. The great majority of modern sources refer to the Shi'ites of southern Lebanon as Arabs. This is also the position of Hezbollah. As for origins, nobody knows for sure but an account of descent from Arab tribes from Yemen is widespread. Zerotalk 05:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
