Abstract	:	This thesis contains a collection of folktales that was the result of intensive fieldwork in 2008 in the region of Jizan in southern Saudi Arabia. I have traveled to Jizan several times in order to meet people from there to sit and document their folktales. I visited people in different places, including their homes and outside their homes, with the intention of writing down their oral traditional tales. Even if I had encountered many obstacles and challenges, such as the geographical difficulties and different customs of my informants, I successfully completed my research.
