The lineage of some of the branch of Barga of the Utayba tribe is traced to Hawazin through Jusham ibn Muawiyah. In the 21st century, the name has slightly evolved for one clan from Banu Jusham, or al-Jush'ami to al-Qathami.[1]

The main tribes that constituted this sub-tribe were as follows:
- Bani Guzayah
- Bani Ouseema
- Bani Oday
