Tahmina or Tahmineh ( , , various other transcriptions like Tahmeena, Tehmina, Tahmineh, Tahmina) is a female character in the story Rostam and Sohrab, part of the 10th-century Persian epic of Shahnameh. Her name is mentioned as the wife of Rostam and as the daughter of Samanganshah, the sovereign of Samangan.
==References in the Shahnameh== In the Shahnameh, Rostam and Sohrab's story begins when Rostam loses his horse, Rakhsh. Grieved and angry, Rostam reaches Samangan, where he is greeted by the king, who offers him the assurance that Rakhsh was too well known for his hiding place not to be soon discovered.
