Aydoun (Arabic: ايدون, alternatively Adun or Idoun or Edoun) is the name of a city in Irbid Governorate in Jordan.
[2] In 1596, during the Ottoman Empire, Aydoun was noted in the census as being located in the nahiya of Bani al-Asar in the Liwa of Hawran.
They paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on various agricultural products, including wheat, barley, summer crops/vineyards/fruit trees, goats and beehives; a total of 10,215 akçe.
[3] In 1838, Aydoun's inhabitants were predominantly Sunni Muslims, and the village was noted as located in the 'Beni Öbeid' area.
[6] Another maqam in Aydoun, once dedicated to Khidr, now lies in ruins, though a decorated lintel still remains at the site.
