Arabian Peninsula : A Geographical Study

Abstract

The Arabian Peninsula is a geographically diverse and resource-rich region with a dominant desert landscape, limited water resources, and immense economic power due to its oil wealth. This research the research delves into the geographical and environmental characteristics of the Arabian Peninsula, detailing its natural divisions and the significant migration patterns of major Arab tribes—namely, those of Qahatan and Adnan—following transformative events such as the deterioration of the Marib Dam. Ultimately, the paper argues that the synchronous development of Islam and the Arabic language has been central to the emergence and sustained influence of Arab civilization, leaving a lasting legacy on cultural and intellectual heritage worldwide.
