Zimran (Hebrew: זִמְרָן, Zimrân; "musician") was the first son of Abraham and Keturah.

Descendants

Zimran was the chieftain and founder of an Arab tribe, whose chief city lay to the west of Mecca. Ptolemy recorded its name as Zabram, the letters ‘m’, and ‘b’ being interchangeable in Arabic. The descendants of Zimran may have traveled with the sons of Medan into Persia, becoming an element of the Persian people.
