Muhammad Avdol

Mohammed Abdul (alternately Avdol) is a fictional character from the Japanese manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Story
Abdul is a fortune teller, born in Cairo, Egypt. He was also one of the first to meet Dio after the vampire's resurrection, barely escaping with his life and sanity. Before the events of Series 3, he had met and barely tamed the Stand-wielding dog Iggy.

Abdul first appeared when he accompanied Joseph Joestar to assess the situation of Jotaro Kujo, jailed in Japan voluntarily. It turned out, through his own knowledge, that Jotaro is a Stand wielder. After that, with newly-enligtened companion Kakyoin, they went to Hong Kong to take a ship, and encountered Polnareff. Abdul was able to defeat him, and after Jotaro destroying Dio's buds in him, became their ally as well.

Abdul initially fell prey to Hol Horse's bullets, when Polnareff tried to slash the bullet apart, only to discover that it can change directions. In saving Polnareff's skin, Abdul got shot by the bullet from behind. From there, it was assumed that he died, only to return during Cameo's onslaught.

He also got victimized by N'Dour, but not after simulating footsteps in the sand to trick N'dour's ears using his own ring cuffs (N'Dour can listen to the ground from far away with his Stand).

Until being killed and vaporized by Vanilla Ice, Abdul served as Polnareff and Iggy's guardian.

Personality
Abdul is a rather serious fellow, who wears his heart on his sleeve and is a good source of knowledge. He is extremely dedicated and willing to die for his comrades. He acts as an adviser of sorts, but is also a powerful warrior. He is the most moderate member of the team: not as impulsive and warm-blooded as Polnareff and Joseph, and not as cold as Kakyoin and Jotaro. He serves as the voice of reason to the rest of the team.

Magician's Red

Trivia

 * In the manga Abdul "died" when fighting Hol Horse, only to return when the group was in danger. He was supposed to actually die in the battle, but fan feedback ordered his return, and it was retconed so that Abdul didn't die, but was merely put out of action.
 * His trademark gesture is mimicking a fire starter, which is done with a rotating thumbs up while saying "Yes, I am! Tch! Tch! Tch!".
 * Abdul is also a fortune teller. This professed expertise on the future, and his enemies' lack of place in it, is something he likes to bring up in his fights.
 * The attack "Cross Fire Hurricane" is a reference to a lyric in the Rolling Stones single Jumpin' Jack Flash
 * In the OVA, Abdul is voiced by Kiyoshi Kobayashi, best known as the voice of Daisuke Jigen in the anime classic Lupin III.
