Shukr Kuhayl

Shukr Kuhayl

Shukr Kuhayl is the name of two 19th-century Yemenite messianic pretenders:
* Shukr Kuhayl I
* Shukr Kuhayl II, also known as Judah ben ShalomThe similarity of the names is not a coincidence, as Judah ben Shalom claimed to be the resurrected Shukr Kuhayl I, and thus adopted that same name.
