Dear Ethan,
It indicates the type of alliance that existed between the individual  
and the tribe (in extenso of the individual). See Ella Landau- 
Tasseron, “Alliances in Islam,” in Monique Bernards and John Nawas  
(eds.), Patronage and Patronage in Early and Classical Islam. Leiden:  
Brill, 2005, p 1-49 but also look in the index of the entire book.  
Good luck and best wishes, John Nawas.
