Hubayra

Hubayra is a historical region located in present-day Iraq, situated between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. It is also known as the "Yamama" region. Historically, Hubayra was a significant center during the early Islamic period, particularly noted for its agricultural productivity and strategic importance.

The region played a role in various historical events, including the early Islamic conquests and subsequent political developments. Its fertile lands made it a desirable area for settlement and cultivation. Over time, the prominence of Hubayra as a distinct geographical and political entity has diminished, with its territories now integrated into broader administrative divisions within Iraq. Archaeological evidence and historical texts provide insights into its past significance, detailing its settlements, agricultural practices, and its place within the broader Mesopotamian landscape. The name Hubayra itself is believed to have Arabic origins, possibly related to concepts of abundance or fertile ground.
