Soomro, Soomra, Sumrah or Sumra (Sindhi: ) is a tribe originating from Sindh, Pakistan. They are found in Sindh, parts of Punjab, especially those bordering Sindh, Balochistan province, and the Kutch district of the Indian state of Gujarat and also Rajasthan. The Soomras ruled in the Sindh and Multan regions at times. The Soomro tribe founded the Soomra dynasty in 10251 CE, which re-established native Sindhi rule over Sindh following the Arab conquest. Many members of the Soomro tribe were among the first in Sindh to convert to Islam from Hinduism but initially continued to maintain several Hindu customs and traditions.
