Yukabar (also Yukhabr; Classical Mandaic: ࡉࡅࡊࡀࡁࡀࡓ is an uthra (angel or guardian) in the World of Light.[1]

In Mandaean scriptures

Yukashar is mentioned in Qolasta prayers 74, 77, 173, and 379.[2] In Right Ginza 15.6, he is mentioned as Yukabar-Kušṭa, and in Right Ginza 16.4 and 17.1 as Yukabar-Ziwa.[1]

Yukabar helps Nbaṭ fight a rebellion against Yushamin in the Mandaean Book of John.[3]
