- Year of foundation :
1973
- Number of members :
103
- Music bands :
2
- Headquarters :
Lugar Alto street. Own place.
- Pennant :
Waning moon with crossing palm trees
over dunes. Inside the waning moon the word "Jaira".
- Origin :
Place located south of the county, next
to Santomera road. Jaira is an arabian feminine name; its meaning is a synonym of
luck and good omen. In Murcia and Almería, after some fights between Arabs and
Berbers, a slave called Jairan got the power and established an independent "Taifa"
kingdom.
- Singularities :
It was the first Kabila to parade for
the arabian side. In 1995 it paraded outside our frontiers, thanks to an invitation
from the Murcia Cultural House in Villeurbane, in the "Brotherhood of the Cultures"
party. Three of the four original founders still remain with the Kabila, the fourth
one has already departed. This Kabila is composed by family units.

- Year of foundation :
1974
- Number of members :
70
- Music bands :
2
- Headquarters :
San José street. Place rented as
usual premises.
- Pennant :
A camel in a blue background in one side,
and a star over a red moon in the another side with the word "Muzalé".
- Origin :
Place located west of the "Huerta",
separated from the "El Jarea" by the "Rambla de la Parra". It's a word whose origin
is "Muza the Moor", name that Christians and Muladies gave to the leader of the Arab
invasion Musa Ben Nusayr. In the history of the Arab domination we can find him in
the eighth century with the name Muza Al, twenty-fifth Caliph, fourth of the Abbas's
dynasty.
- Singularities :
It's the group that has given more Queens
and Ladys to the "fiesta" since 1986, when these ranks were established, with a total
of five Queens.

- Year of foundation :
1974
- Number of members :
17
- Music bands :
1
- Headquarters :
Lope de Vega street. Usual rented
premises.
- Pennant :
Two interlaced octagons, gold and silver,
the scimitar as a sign of the strength oh the arabian side and over all that the
Cross. Also a waning moon surrounded by the words "Omeyas de Mahoya".
- Origin :
They were the Caliph's dynasty that ruled
the Islam from 661 to 750 and in the Muslim Hispania from 929 to 1031 as a caliphate
independent from Damask. After the fall of the Omeya caliphate in Córdoba, the Muslim
Hispania broke off into the small "Taifa" kingdoms. Mahoya is located in the
Abanilla's "Huerta", at the beginning of the Pinoso road, the old path to the Aragon
kingdom.
- Singularities :
It's composed exclusively by men. Each
one of them get the name of a caliphate honoring a place in Abanilla. It's the only
Kabila that, from its early days, parade with very long muskets.

- Year of foundation :
1979
- Number of members :
86
- Music bands :
2
- Headquarters :
Menéndez Pelayo street. Usual rented
premises.
- Pennant :
It's got arabian elements: a waning moon,
the sun and the palm trees that fill the landscape of "El Margen", in the middle of
the "Huerta de Mahoya".
- Origin :
The name Al'Jarea comes from a historic
reason from the moorish town of Mahoya, whose arabian fortress had that name. Later
on they added the name Al'Margen for a place nearby south of Al'Jarea.
- Singularities :
This Kabila is composed mostly by married
couples, that's why it has the biggest children's group, about 40 of them. At the
beginning it was known as "the Kabila from Mahoya", because all its members were from
Mahoya. Nowadays it still has most of that members, but it also has people "from the
town" as they call the people from Abanilla.

- Year of foundation :
1979
- Number of members :
29
- Music bands :
1
- Headquarters :
Albayada street. The place is a cave
that they bought in 1997.
- Pennant :
Crossing scimitar and blunder buss. The
muzzle facing down and the blade of the scimitar facing up. The main colors are blue,
white and gold.
- Origin :
This is the name that the arabs gave to
Abanilla when they were here. We know very few facts about that time, but we have
some Muslim remains over older Roman places, the citadel in "Lugar Alto" and the
fortress in "Santa Ana". We also know that they improved the irrigation system
through all the land.
