Moharam (family)

Moharam of Judham of Murrah of Sheba of Kahlan of Qahtanite origin (also Moharram, Muharram, Aal Moharam, Aal Maharema) (Arabic: مُحَرَّم or المحارمة) is a family lineage from Egypt with ancestors from Yemen.

Moharam first entered Egypt with the Arab conquest of Egypt in December 639 with Amr Bin-Al Aas,[1] settled in Kafr Ali Kaly (قرية كفر على غالى) Al Sharkia, and owned lands.

The major cause of their spread into Egypt was their refusal to pay taxes in the era of Muhammad Ali of Egypt, who ordered the destruction of their houses.

Once they heard that the army was marching towards their homes, they abandoned them and took refuge in the neighboring cities.

[3] After the campaign, some of the family houses returned to Al-sharkia while others made their homes in other places in Egypt.
