Daurama () or Magajiya Daurama () (fl. 9th century) was a ruler of the Hausa people who, as the last Kabara of Daura, presided over the upheaval that saw a transference of power from the matriarchal royal system. Oral traditions remember her as the founding "queen grandmother" of the Hausa Empire started in the area known today as the monarchies of northern Niger and Nigeria. The story of Magajiya Daurama is partially told in the legend of Bayajidda.
