The bedouin people may have developed strong clan relationships because:

they had abundant resources.

the harsh desert climate

required cooperation.

people lived packed together in densely-populated cities.

the qur'an tells muslims to honor family above all else.

- the harsh desert climate

               - required cooperation

               - the Qur'an tells families to honor family above all else

Explanation:

- The harsh desert climate meant that they did not have an abundance of resources. They could not farm the land or dedicate themselves to agriculture, as such they would focus around trade and livestock, requiring cooperation between different clan members.

- Due to the harsh conditions of their environment, they developed a nomadic lifestyle, in stark contrast with urbanized arabs. Their non-sedentary way of life, required further cooperation between members, in order to better organize the constant movement of their settlements.

-The majority of the Beduin people are fervent followers of Islam, which puts a strong emphasis on mantaining and upholding family honor and family relationships. The Qu'ran explicitily dictates "Do not sever your relationship with a member of your family, even if he severs his relationship with you".

All these factors may have combined to explain the strong attachment between clan members in the Bedouin people.

Hope this helps!
