Arabic god of the weather From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quzaḥ (Arabic: قزح) is a pre-Islamic Arab god of weather,[1] worshiped by the people of Muzdalifah. The pre-Islamic rite of the Ifada celebrated after the September equinox was performed facing the direction of Quzah's sanctuary.[2][3] A lasting reference to Quzah is the term qaws Quzaḥ (قوس قزح), "Bow of Quzah", which became the Arabic term for rainbow.[4]
