"however, judging by his surname, he probably hails from the Ma'dan Bani Lam tribe."

It's there if anybody wants to find a citation for it, but for now, it doesn't belong in the article. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 00:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

Also, regarding his unsourced origins, we had this in our infobox: " Tigris-Euphrates marshlands, Iraq". Feel free to find RSes supporting this, but for now, it doesn't belong there. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 14:47, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

Keeping this article link in cryogenic storage here, so to speak, in case it can be useful to someone. Unfortunately, the page is dead, and I can't find an archive. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 14:39, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
