Biography
Marthad'ilan Yanuf was the son of 'Abd-Kulal, a former Himyarite governor who took the throne as a temporary regent acting for Sharhabil Yakkuf.[5] He was a Christian, just like his father.[6][1] In the early years of his rule, Marthad'ilan Yanuf allowed three ambassadors from Aksum to build a palace for themselves at Dhofar;[7] the inscriptions also state that he provided support for the project.[8] Marthad'ilan Yanuf appears to have reigned for 15 years based on inscriptions,[2] while the Arab historians gave him a reign of forty years.[5][1][3] He had a son named Wali'ah, who was a well-respected government official.[5]
