From what is known the albalushi tribe in the Arab Gulf states are of Balochi origin from Pakistan/Iran, not Arabs. This article has been completely poorly rewritten in poor English with false information claiming they are Arabs. Mteiritay (talk) 14:56, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Al Balushi (Arabic: البلوشي; alternatively Baloushi, Balooshi, Bloushi, Blushi or Blooshi) is a tribal surname common in the Persian Gulf region, particularly Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. It is a nisba and is Arabized from the term Balochi, denoting someone who has Baloch ancestry.The Baloch people are of Iranian stock and the language a branch of Indo-Iranian languages. People carrying this surname trace their tribal origins to Balochistan, a region in south Iran and Pakistan located across the Persian Gulf. Their ancestors predominantly came from the Makran coast in the 19th century. The Al Balushi speak Arabic, while some also use Balochi or Persian. They are mainly Sunni Muslims. They are a populous tribe in Oman, the UAE and Bahrain HamadBaloch (talk) 14:15, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
