Yawm Halima ("Day of Halima") is the name given to a battle fought between the rival Ghassanid and Lakhmid Arabs in the 6th century. Considered "[o]ne of the most famous battles of pre-Islamic Arabia",{{sfn|Retsö|2003|p=500 (note 205)}}{{sfn|Shahîd|2009|p=95}} it was named after Halima, a Ghassanid princess who assisted the warriors of her tribe in the battle.{{sfn|Shahîd|2009|pp=86, 94–96}} The exact identity of the Ghassanid king who fought the battle is not certain, but he is commonly identified with al-Harith ibn Jabalah,{{sfn|Shahîd|2009|p=95}} a major Byzantine client ruler who waged frequent conflicts with the Lakhmids under their respective king al-Mundhir III ibn al-Nu'man. The Lakhmids in turn were clients of the Sassanid Persians, and the perennial tribal warfare between them and the Ghassanids was combined into the larger rivalry between Byzantium and Persia, with the Arabs fighting as auxiliaries to the two great empires.{{sfn|Greatrex|Lieu|2002|pp=88, 102ff}}{{sfn|Martindale|Jones|Morris|1992|pp=111–113}} Yawm Halima is identified with a battle fought in June 554 near Chalcis, where the Ghassanids confronted one of Mundhir's raids. The Lakhmids were defeated and their king Mundhir fell on the field, but Harith also lost his eldest son Jabalah.{{sfn|Shahîd|2009|p=95}}{{sfn|Martindale|Jones|Morris|1992|pp=111–113}}{{sfn|Greatrex|Lieu|2002|pp=129–130}} ReferencesSources
