The answer

The people of Shu'ayb, "Midian," lived near the lake of the people of Lut, and the people of Nuh lived in southern Iraq around Kufa, and the people of Lut lived in Sodom and Gomorrah next to the Dead Sea.

Ibrahim (peace be upon him) moved between Iraq, Palestine, and Egypt, then settled in Makkah, and died in Hebron, Palestine.

Nuh (peace be upon him) was Syriac, and there were ten centuries between him and Adam, and ten centuries between Nuh and Ibrahim.

Shu'ayb (peace be upon him) was an Arab, and he is one of four Arab prophets: Hud, Salih, Shu'ayb, and our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

Ibrahim and Lut were descendants of Sam, son of Nuh.
