Al-Bayyad
Al-Bayyad (Arabic: البياض) is a municipality in Southern Lebanon, located in Tyre District, Governorate of South Lebanon.
E. H. Palmer wrote that the name means "the white spot".
In 1881, during the late Ottoman era, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described it: "A village, built of stone, with many ruined houses [..], containing about 100 Metawileh, situated on hill-top, surrounded by fig-trees, olives, and arable land ; water supplied from cisterns."
They further noted: "There are many ruined houses at this village, and a lintel with three crosses upon it, the centre being the largest. Foundations of rough-hewn stones of some building."
In 2014 Muslims made up 99.58% of registered voters in Al-Bayyad. 99.17% of the voters were Shiite Muslims.
