Abraha (also spelled Abreha) (died after 553; r. 525—at least 553) also known as 'Abraha al-Ashram or Abraha b. as-Saba'h, is an Aksumite Christian viceroy in southern Arabia for the Kingdom of Aksum, and later self styled King of Saba' (Yemen).

Procopius records that Abraha was once the slave of a Roman merchant at Adulis, while al-Tabari says that he was related to the Axumite royal family.
