Ufnun

Suraim ibn Ma'shar, called Ufnun, of the Hubaib branch of Taghlib, lived before the promulgation of Islam, probably while his tribe was settled in 'Iraq. Lyall thinks he may have been a Christian.

Lyall gives the story that a diviner had warned him he would die at a place called Ilahah, where a snake bit him on a journey to Damascus.
