How did the live of Arabs and town Arabs differ?

Answer 1

The main difference between desert Arabs or Bedouin (بدوين) and settled Arabs or Fellahin (فلاحين) is that the lifestyle differed. Bedouins were nomadic people who were primarily pastoralists (people who raise animals). Bedouins would typically herd sheep and goats and migrate between various regions to feed their flocks. By contrast, Fellahin were settled into small towns and cities and were typically farmers who planted and cultivated fields of crops. Because the Fellahin were centered in communities, they were often more religious and traditional than the Bedouin, who practiced more a folk and transportable religion.
