Tabūʿa (Old Arabic: ; ) was a queen regnant of the Nomadic Arab tribes of Qedar. She ruled in the 7th century BC, circa 675 BC. She succeeded queen Te'el-hunu.
== Life == Tabua was the fifth of six Arab queens to be attested (as sarratu) in Assyrian documents between Tiglath-pileser III and Assurbanipal, who were Zabibe, Samsi, Yatie, Te'el-hunu, Tabua and Adia, the first five of them rulers. Tabua's early life is not well-known, except for the fact that she was raised by Sennacherib as his daughter to be the new queen of the Arabs. Some have theorized that Tabua was Te'el-hunu's and Sennacherib's child, who was born during the captivity of the former; however this theory remains highly speculative.
