Shuweihat are the members of an ethnic minority in Chad and Sudan, which belongs to the Ja'alin tribal confederation. Most of them are Sunni Muslims. They speak the Sudanese dialect of the Arabic language. The Shuweihat have intermarried with members of the Ja'alin and Bedaria tribes and to a lesser extent with the Shaigiya tribe.[citation needed]
