Sindhis (Sindhi: سنڌي‎,Devanagari: सिन्धी , Romanised: Sin-dhee),  sɪndis or sɪndhi, are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group who speak the Sindhi language and are native to the Sindh province of Pakistan. Besides Sindh the historical homeland of Sindhis are regions Kacchi Plain, the Lasbela and Makran regions in Balochistan, the Bahawalpur region of Punjab, the Kutch region of Gujarat, and Jaisalmer and Barmer regions of Rajasthan, India. There are many Sindhi-Hindus who migrated to India after partition in 1947.

Most Sindhi tribes and Clans are a modified form of a patronymic and typically end with the suffix - ani, Ja/Jo, or Potra/Pota, which is used to denote descent from a common male ancestor. One explanation states that the -ani suffix is a Sindhi variant of 'anshi', derived from the Sanskrit word 'ansh', which means 'descended from'.

Most of Sindhi tribes are Gurjars, Rajputs, Jats, Samma, Arab, Mughal, Turkic, and others in origin, list of Sindhi tribes is given below:
