In Mandaeism, Nirig (Classical Mandaic: ࡍࡉࡓࡉࡂ) or Nerig is the Mandaic name for the planet Mars. Nirig is one of the seven planets (Classical Mandaic: ࡔࡅࡁࡀ, romanized: šuba, lit. 'The Seven'), who are part of the entourage of Ruha in the World of Darkness.[1][2]

Nirig, who is also called Marik, is associated with Islam, as well as with war and violence. Nirig's name is derived from the Akkadian Nergallu.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
