Taʽisha tribe

Ta'isha (Arabic: تعايشة), or Ta'aisha, or Taaisha, one of a series of Arabic-speaking groups collectively called Baggara "cattle people", who live in Sudan, across southern Kordofan, Darfur, as well as Chad.

The Khalifa during his rule brought his tribe to Central Sudan and he went on to make extensive use of his relatives and other fellow Ta'a'isha as soldiers and administrators.

[1] Several Ta'aisha amirs who survived the Mahdiyya became prominent at the re-established Darfur Sultanate of Ali Dinar,[2] one being Arabi Dafallah, who was appointed commander of the Equatorial province with its headquarters at Rejaf under the Khalifa's rule.

[4] After the destruction of the Mahdist State, many of the Ta'aisha returned to Darfur, but communities of them settled in Sennar, Gedaref, and White Nile provinces.

During their summer seasonal migration, Taʽaisha cross Chad border, just like what they do in the case of the Republic of Central Africa, to graze their animals.
