'Uzlah
'Uzlah (Arabic: عزلة ,plural 'Uzaal ; Arabic: عزل) is one of the regional administrative divisions that are native to Yemen.[1] 'Uzlah was a sub-division of Mikhlaf. However, the Mikhleef system isn't used anymore by the government so it is now an administrative sub-division of a district and it comprises the number of villages or markets.[1][2]
Etymology
The word 'Uzlah means loneliness in Arabic.[3]
