Mudhar or Mudar (Arabic مضر), is one of two major branches of the "North arabian" (Adnanite) tribes, the other branch being Rabi'ah.
Mudhar descended from Madher ibn ("son of") Nazar ibn Ma'ed ibn Adnan ibn Add ibn Send ibn Napyot [1] ibn Ishmael [2][2][3] ibn Abraham [4][5][6] ibn Azar [7][8][9] (Terah) ibn Nahoor [10] ibn Srooj [11] ibn Ra'o [12] ibn Phaleg [13] ibn Aber [14] ibn Shaleh [15][16][17] ibn Arpheckshad [18] ibn Sam [19] ibn Noah ibn Lamek [20] ibn Motoshaleh ibn Edres (Enoch) ibn Yared ibn Mehlaiel ibn Qenan ibn Anosh ibn Sheeth ibn Adam
