Uzal (Hebrew: אוזל, `Uwzal; "I shall be flooded") was the sixth son of Joktan mentioned in Genesis 10:26.

Descendants

Arab historians render the name of Uzal as Azal, and this is the ancient pre-Islamic name of the city of Sana'a, the modern capital of the Yemen. Azila was also a town in Morocco. Uzal's descendants are still doubtless thriving in the area. The Assyrians knew the tribe of Uzal as the Azalla.
