Introduction

Seen at https://www.alamy.com/iraqi-sunni-tribal-leaders, a yellow-field flag with the bluish-colored Arabic name of the Al-Dulaym tribe, whose three million members reside primarily in Iraq, as well as in Syria, Jordan, and Kuwait. Al-Dulaym is also spelled Dulam, Dulaimi and Dalaimy. Members of this tribe are commonly identifiable by the surnames of their own 1,000 sub-clans or by the name Al-Dulaimi. In this photo, on this flag the spelling of "Al-Dulaym" (Arabic: الدليم ) is used. They represent a very powerful Sunni-Muslim tribe. There is a hidden flagpole sleeve at the right hoist side.
