Banu Daws

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Banu Daws ( Arabic : ??? ??? ) was one of the clan of Arabia during Muhammad's era . Located south of Mecca , it is a branch of the Zahran tribe , [1] among its leaders Tufayl ibn Amr , one of Muhammad 's companions. [2]

There are Islamic prophecies with regards to 'End-Times' that have quoted the tribe; like the following by Abu Hurairah:

Abu Hurairah said, I heard the Prophet say, The Hour will not come until the buttocks of the women of Daws move (quiver) while going around Dhu l-Khalasah. Dhu l-Khalasah was an idol worshiped by the tribe of Daws during the Jahiliyyah . (Hadith from Bukhari.)
