The Jewish Christian conflict and its reflection on the internal situation in Yemen before Islam

Abstract

The Jewish-Christian conflict before Islam had its repercussions on the southern Arab countries, which prompted an intensification of the conflict between the Jews and the Christians, especially since the Persians were standing on the side of the Jews, to spite the Byzantines who were supporting the Christians - in the countries of Yemen - and also did not support the Naqshi sources. The King (Yusuf Asar) is the one who took the groove - as the historical narratives mention - because what he (Dhu Nawas) did was a national movement, because the Christians of Najran were with loyalty to Abyssinia, and his attempt to preserve the unity of his country and protect the Himyarite state from collapse, And that is by eliminating the causes of deterioration, and that the process of abuse was not for religious reasons, but rather for political reasons encapsulated in a religious cover.
