Hud (prophet)Hud (Hūd) was a prophet of ancient Arabia mentioned in the Quran.

Arabian Desert and Rub' al Khali Hud has sometimes been identified with Eber, an ancestor of the Ishmaelites and the Israelites who is mentioned in the Old Testament.

The Books of Kings as well as 1 Chronicles state that Jerusalem was known as Jebus prior to this event (1 Chronicles 11:4).
