Relation To The Prophet Mohammed
The Banu Asad have been complimented by the prophet Mohammad as only few Arab tribes have been. The Banu Asad spread and developed the Arabic language since the 1st or the 2nd century.
In the 6th century a royal chief of the Kendah tribe named Hojr was killed by the Bani Asad. A contemporary of Imru' al-Qais, the illustrious Arabian mu'allaqat poet 'Abid ben al-Abras belonged to the Bani Asad and was fond of vaunting Hojr's murder.
