Farming signifies civilization. Human civilization started on the banks of the Euphrates and Tigris when agriculture was first introduced in the Fertile Crescent. Every major empire has been built on farming and agriculture. Look at the Americans whose only economy and the existence of slavery was because of agriculture and cash crops. Modern day example is the Chinese. Heck even the Ethiopian empire was built on the culture started because they farmed. A nomadic man is a man without civilization. Any wonder the Somali nomads are lawless and anarchic?

I agree 100%. A farmer is too busy to worry about tribe etc. Also farmers usually develop very strong reliance on Allah.

Clan is very important among nomads, because without a clan, a nomad cannot survive. While in farming, their is more sense of individualism, land ownership, property rights etc. so clan is not really that big of a deal
