Nasr (mitologia)

Nasr (Arabic نسر) - in Arabic mythology, man or deity.

Nasr is a South African deity. Nasra's motifs showed him in the form of a falcon. According to Ibn al-Kalbi's account, Nasr once lived on Earth as a human, between Adam and Eve, and sometimes the flood in Noah's life. He was righteous and devout. At the same time, Jaghut and Ja'uk lived in the same antediluvian time, who had the same advantages as him. When their lives were over, the families of the venerable husbands plunged into mourning. Then came Kabil. This man, from the Banu tribe, proposed to the families grieving that he would perform statues of their dead relatives, including Nasra. The families agreed. Kbil made a sculpture depicting Nasra, as did the other righteous husbands.

This is how the cult was born, because the statues began to worship God. Ibn al-Kalbi is trying to explain the birth of the cult of the pre-Islamic deity, which was supplanted by Islam. His name appears in the Koran. Mahomet mentions Nasra and other deities of polytheism, putting their names in the mouths of their followers of Noah's polemics. In the LXXI Surze Koran there are words:
