Were there any Arab people on the Titanic and if so where were they from?

Not from the Arab peninsula. At the time oil was not yet an important commodity, and the Arabs were largely dirt-poor nomads, mostly living from camel breeding and the income from pilgrims to Mecca and Medina. They couldn't at the time afford the Titanic as a pleasure trip, and unlike the poor from eastern and southern Europe of that era, they never considered emigrating. So no Arab peninsula third-class passengers either.
There were however 80 passengers from Lebanon on board. That country has a multi-ethnic society, and the Titanic passenger list does of course not mention their ethnicity. But it is probable that a number of these Lebanese passengers were ethnic Arabs.

The Titanic sunk because of a misunderstanding. People thought it was such a grand and big boat so they never thought it would sink.
