Arab Muslims
Arab Muslims are adherents of Islam who identify linguistically, culturally, or genealogically as Arabs. Arab Muslims greatly outnumber other ethnic groups in the Middle East.[1]
Muslims who are not Arabs are called mawali (Arabic: موالي) by Arab Muslims.[2] Historian Hugh Seton-Watson has argued that solidarity has historically been stronger between Arab Muslims than between all Muslims because many believe that only Arab Muslims are true Muslims.[3]
