We derive proper time Lyapunov exponent [Formula: see text] and coordinate time Lyapunov exponent [Formula: see text] for a regular Hayward class of black hole. The proper time corresponds to [Formula: see text] and the coordinate time corresponds to [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is measured by the asymptotic observers both for Hayward black hole and for special case of Schwarzschild black hole. We compute their ratio as [Formula: see text] for time-like geodesics. In the limit of [Formula: see text] that means for Schwarzschild black hole this ratio reduces to [Formula: see text]. Using Lyapunov exponent, we investigate the stability and instability of equatorial circular geodesics. By evaluating the Lyapunov exponent, which is the inverse of the instability time scale, we show that, in the eikonal limit, the real and imaginary parts of quasi-normal modes (QNMs) is specified by the frequency and instability time scale of the null circular geodesics. Furthermore, we discuss the unstable photon sphere and radius of shadow for this class of black hole.
