Ayasrah

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ayasrah (/æjɑːsrɑː/; Arabic: عياصره pronounced [ʕjaːsˤrh]), is the name of a prominent Jordanian family based in Sakib. They trace their lineage back to Banu Hashim, as Hashemite descendants of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[1]

Etymology[edit]

In the early 16th century, there were two contiguous villages named Sakib and Aysra (عيصره). The family took the name from Aysra, which is now the northern part of present-day Sakib. In 1538, the Ottoman census of the liwa (district) of Ajlun indicates that Sakib had a population of 13 households and 1 mosque's imam, while Aysra had a population of 7 households and 1 mosque's imam.[2]
