Sheikh Mand or Sheikh Mend, Sheikh Mand Pasha (Kurdish: Şêx Mend[1]) was a 13th-century Yazidi saint, ruler of Kilis principality, and an Ayyubid Army commander. He is the son of Şêx Fexredîn and thus belongs to the Şemsanî lineage of sheikhs. His sister was Khatuna Fekhra, revered today as one of the most important Yazidi female saints.[2][3][4]
