Habbﾄ］
The habbﾄ］ (or hibbﾄ］) is a type of bagpipe used in the coastal regions of the Persian Gulf (especially Kuwait). The term ''盧･abbﾄ］'' (''ﾙﾘｨﾘｧﾙ'') is one of several Arabic terms for the bagpipes. The term is drawn from ''Hanbﾄ］'' (ﾙﾙﾘｨﾘｧﾙ), the Persian word for "bag.". In Gulf states the term ''habban'' refers to the traditional Holi (inhabitants of the eastern coast of the Persian Gulf) bagpipe. The habbﾄ］ is also called the jirbah (). While the term itself is generic, in Oman the ''habban'' is more specifically a variant of the Great Highland bagpipe which has been incorporated into local music.
