Dawud (Arabic: دَاوُوْد, romanized: Dāwūd [daːwuːd]), or David, is considered a prophet and messenger of God (Allah) in Islam, as well as a righteous, divinely-anointed monarch of the United Kingdom of Israel.[3] Additionally, Muslims also honor David for having received the divine revelation of the Zabur (Psalms).[4][5]
Dawud is considered one of the most important people in Islam. Mentioned sixteen times in the Quran, David appears in the Islamic scripture as a link in the chain of prophets who preceded Muhammad.[6] Although he is not usually considered one of the "law-giving" prophets (ulū al-ʿazm), "he is far from a marginal figure"[according to whom?] in Islamic thought.[4] In later Islamic traditions, he is praised for his rigor in prayer and fasting. He is also presented as the prototypical just ruler and as a symbol of God's authority on earth, having been at once a king and a prophet.
David is particularly important to the religious architecture of Islamic Jerusalem.[3] Dawud is known as biblical David who was, according to the Hebrew Bible, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah, reigning c. 1010–970 BCE.[citation needed]
