The majority of the Arabs in Singapore are Hadhramis tracing their ancestry from the southern part of the Arabian Peninsula called Hadhramaut, Yemen. Some of the people living there are known as “Hadhramis”. The land there is mostly desert region. The fertile areas, suitable for cultivation, are small and concentrated in the wadi region. This harsh natural environment drove the Hadhramis to travel out of the area to trade and acquire the necessary items they needed. They had travelled to and engaged in trade in several areas: Hyderabad, India (before 1947), Dar-es-Salaam and East Africa as well as Malaya and the Netherlands East Indies.

  • لقد كانت هناك عدة هجرات عربية إلى دول آسيا وأفريقيا وأوروبا، وضمن تلك الهجرات دخل الحضارم إلى سنغافورة، بغرض التجارة، فقاموا بإيصال الدين الإسلامي واللغة العربية لهذه البلاد، مما أدى ذلك إلى زرع الثقة في نفوسهم واندماجهم مع العرب المهاجرين والحضارمة منهم تحديدا. (ar)
