√HāMāN, HMN 
n.prop. 
Hamān 
▪ (BAH2008): (proper) noun occurring six times in the Qur’an. »It is considered to be a Copt borrowing related to the Egyptian God of Amon, most likely, according to Muḥammad Asad, the designation ‘Hā-Amen’ given to every high priest of the Egyptian god of Amon (not to be confused with Pers Haman of the Old Testament), or possibly, according to other commentators, it is a proper noun. [In the Qur’an, Hāmān is] either the name of the chief aid to Pharaoh or the title of the high priest in Egypt at the time of Moses (Est. III ff.) (Q 40:36) ‘and Pharaoh said, “Hāmān, build me a lofty tower”’«
