This article is about the medieval ruler. For the Biblical character, see Naaman.

Na'aman or Nu'aman (Arabic: نعمان ابن منذربن امريء القيس اللخمي) was the last Lakhmid king of Al-Hirah (582-613 AD) and a Christian Arab. According to some of the historical accounts when Sassanid king Khosrau II demanded Nu'aman's Christian daughter as part of his extensive harem, he refused the Shah's demand. In response, Khosrau II had him crushed by elephants.[citation needed]
