Abstract
The common perception among scholars is that although the northern and southern lands of the Arabian Peninsula had a long history of state formation, the ignorant Arabs of the Hejaz lived in statelessness until the resurrection of the Messenger of God and the invitation of the religion of Islam, the first The form of government was established in Medina. In this study, assuming the state in the most general sense that it includes any rational and customary order of political order, has shown that the history of the formation of the state, at least, more than two hundred years ago Islam and the domination of the Quraysh tribe that Hejaz is one of the purest Arab tribes, he returns. Qusay ibn Kalab ibn Marah or Quraysh was the one who saved the Quraysh families from dispersal and united them in the form of the establishment of a tribal political system and made the city of Mecca as the center of its rule. In addition to the political order, he organized the city of Mecca economically and religiously with the idea of Al-Nadwa. Thus, many indicators of government formation can be seen in pre-Islamic pre-Islamic Arabia. Basically, the most important reason for Makyan to have a government is the intensity of the opposition of the polytheists and infidels to the invitation of the Messenger of God before and after his migration to Medina.
