In several variations of the Huma myths, the bird is said to be [[Phoenix (mythology)|phoenix]]-like, consuming itself in fire every few hundred years, only to rise anew from the ashes. The Huma bird is said to have both the male and female natures in one body (reminiscent of the Chinese [[Fenghuang]]), each nature having one wing and one leg. Huma is considered to be compassionate, and a 'bird of fortune'<ref name="divan"/> since its shadow (or touch) is said to be auspicious.

In Sufi tradition, catching the Huma is beyond even the wildest imagination, but catching a glimpse of it or even a shadow of it is sure to make one happy for the rest of his/her life. It is also believed that Huma cannot be caught alive, and the person killing a Huma will die in forty days.<ref name="divan"/>
