Family origin
The Imad family is named for al-Amadiyyah, near Mosul in northern Iraq and, like the Jumblatt family, is thought to be of Kurdish origin.[2]
Some unconfirmed sources allege that the roots of Family Imad ancestors are associated with those of Imad ad-Din Zengi (1087; † 1146), who was in turn the Atabeg of Mosul from 1127 to his death in 1146.
Imad as a family name also indicates descent from the originally Druze feudal family Al-Imad in the Chouf region of Mount Lebanon.

gollark: ```pythonfrom z3 import *iters = [ Int(f"x{i}") for i in range(40) ]solver = Solver()for n,x in enumerate(iters): if n == 0: solver.add(x == 1111111) else: last = iters[n - 1] solver.add(Or(x == last, (x * 2) == last, x == ((last * 3) + 1)))solver.add(iters[-1] == 1)print(solver.check())print(solver.model())```This is the *best* way to do collatz.
gollark: It's a theorem prover. It can tell you if certain statements/sets of statements are satisfiable, and if so how.
