It is narrated from Abu Ubaydah that: Qays bin Asim bin Sinan bin Khalid bin Minqar bin Ubayd bin Muqa'is bin Amr bin Ka'b bin Sa'd bin Zayd Manat bin Tamim; he was the chief of his people, and when he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as part of a delegation, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (on seeing him): "This is the chief of the desert-dwellers (the people of the tents)."
