==History== In the late 19th century or early 20th century, Madbaa was sold by a sheikh of the Bani Khalid tribe, Bedouins of central Syria, to the prominent Kaylani family of Hama. Later in the early 20th century, the Kaylani family sold the village to Najib Agha Barazi, a member of another major landowning family from Hama, in the early 20th century. The inhabitants of the village were Alawite tenant farmers who were settled there in the 1920s or early 1930s.
