Suku Badui (Arab)

Suku Badui atau Badawi () atau Bedouin () adalah sebuah suku pengembara yang ada di Jazirah Arab. Sebagaimana suku-suku pengembara lainnya, suku Badui berpindah dari satu tempat ke tempat lain sembari menggembalakan kambing.

Suku Badui merupakan salah satu dari suku asli di Arab. Perawakan suku Badui yang khas menyebabkan suku ini dapat langsung dikenali. Perawakannya sebagaimana ditulis dalam buku-buku sejarah Arab: suku ini berperawakan tinggi, dengan hidung mancung. Lain halnya dengan suku pendatang yang ada di Arab, suku Badui tetap mempertahankan budaya dan cara hidup mengembara.

Istilah sebutan yang mengacu untuk Orang Kanekes sebagai Baduy berasal dari nama ini.
