Brigadier General Mohammad Daoud Al-Abbasi (الزعيم محمد داود;‎ 11 July 1914 – 19 January 1972) was a Jordanian politician and the Prime Minister of Jordan and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the military government[1][2] in Jordan during the Jordanian Civil War.

He worked as a police officer in the city of Tulkarm in the West Bank, which was then a part of Jordan until the Six-Day War.

[3][5][6] An Arab League Summit Committee assigned Kuwaiti Minister of Defense Saad Al-Sabah, Sudanese head of state Gaafar Nimeiry, and the Deputy Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia, Omar Al Saqqaf to investigate and report back the cause of the clash to the Arab summit.

After 10 days only as a prime minister, on 24 September, out of frustration and pressure after being unable to avoid this developing conflict and the devastating results, Al-Abbasi submitted his resignation[8] from his position to the Jordanian Ambassador in Cairo, Hazem Nuseibeh.

Egyptian president, Gamal Abdel Nasser, asked Al-Abbasi to stay in Cairo for consultation of Jordanian affairs.
