Zalambur

Zalambur (alternate spelling Zalanboor) (Arabic: زلنبور‎) is one of the five sons of Iblis[1] mentioned in Sahih Muslim.[2] He is a shaitan who presides over dishonest and fraudulent business transactions. Said to have four brothers: Awar (اعور or لأعوار), Dasim (داسم), Sut (مسوط), and Tir (ثبر). Each of them is linked to another psychological function, which they try to encourage to prevent humans spiritual development.[3]
