As the terms "Raḥmān" ("the merciful," a divine epithet), "the God of Israel", and the "Lord of Judah", can also be seen in 6th and 7th centuries inscriptions of the Jewish Yemeni Himyarite Kingdom. The term may have also been monolatrous until the arrival of Christianity in the mid-sixth century. During the reign of the Christian Himyarite king Sumyafa Ashwa, Jesus was referred to as the son of Raḥmānān. A few decades later, during the reign of Abraha, Jesus was also described as the Messiah of Raḥmānān. Rahman (Arabic: رحمن, Raḥmān) is an Arabic origin surname meaning "gracious", "King", "merciful" or "Lord" based on the triconsonantal root R-Ḥ-M. With nisba (Arabic onomastic), the name becomes Rahmani, means "descendant of the gracious one" and is also used as a surname. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rishat Rahman 02 (talkcontribs) 14:21, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
