qabīla (English spelling) qabila

...Any group that shares a common ancestor for many generations is an 'ā'ila, regardless of its size, and 'ā'ila exists in an endless number of layers. Generally, a relatively small blood-related group is called an 'ā'ila, and a large blood-related group is called a qabīla (clan, tribe), but the distinction between 'ā'ila and qabīla is unclear. 'ā'ila and qabīla are continuous, and qabīla is an extension of the family.
