Zulqarneyn

Zulqarneyn, the one with two horns, is mentioned in Qur'an in Surat ul Kahf. He is the one who built the wall to prevent an attack from Yajooj - Majooj ( Yecc - Mecc ). It is unknown who Zulqarneyn is but it's believed that he might be the King of Persia, Cyrus The Great or Darius. Another possibility is that Zulqarneyn is Alexander the Great, who was often depicted with two rams' horns following his identification with the Egyptian god Amon. Some Islamic scholars suggested that he was an ancient king from Yemen called the Tubba', while others suggested that he lived during the time of prophet Abraham.
