The Banu Awf (Arabic: بنو عوف, Banu ‘Awf), today known as Al Aufy and various spellings such as Al Aufi, Al Oufi, Al Awfi, and Al Awfy (Arabic: العوفي) is an ancient Arab tribe with a significant historical influence in the Arabian Peninsula, particularly in Oman. The tribe is renowned for its diverse lineage and contributions to the sociopolitical and cultural landscape of the region. The tribe's symbol is the poisonous oleander, symbolising their resilient ability to survive and danger when provoked. The largest concentration of the Al Aufy tribe is in Oman, specifically in Wadi Bani Awf, an ancestral valley that holds cultural and historical importance[1] and is today a popular tourism destination known for its rugged beauty and outdoor recreation opportunities.[2]
