Dawud

داود
Text Size:
Dawud (David) is a highly revered prophet and king in Islam, known for his wisdom, strength, and beautiful voice. The Quran identifies him as the recipient of the Zabur (Psalms) and praises his constant devotion and repentance to Allah. He is famous for defeating the giant Jalut (Goliath) and for his mastery of ironworking, which Allah made soft for him. Prophet Dawud (AS) is also remembered for his fasting and his night prayers, serving as a model of the "middle way"-a leader who ruled with justice while remaining deeply connected to the Divine through worship and humility.
