The rule of Arab tribes on the city made most of the Jews leave Yathrib. In the times near the appearance of Islam, the Jew tribes were living in their strongholds out of the city. Banu Qurayza, had the upper hand in population compared to the other two tribes, [[Banu Nadir]] and [[Banu Qaynuqa']], and were placed in south-east of Yathrib, they were mostly farmers. The only report about Banu Qurayza is about their battle with Muslims in the year 5 AH/626. Other reports about them are about the history of Aws and Khazraj, and mostly are about times before Islam.
