Alaan Bin Yafra`was a representative of the Al- Raydanids - the Himyarites, during the inauguration of the Shabaean king Dhamar Ali Watar Hanaman, the king of Shaba and Dhi Raydan, at Jabal Al-Loud in the Al-Jawf region.

At the beginning of the second century AD, it was one of the Himyarite tribes that announced their transformation from subordination to Saba to loyalty and obedience to the sons of Dhi Raydan.

They switched from the Al-Adhwayah to the monarchs, and they played a clear role during the Shabean - Dhi Raydan Struggle.
