Rayhan was a Mentor of the Hidden Ones in the late 9th century.[1]

Biography

At some point during his 870s tenure, he sent a message to his student Hytham, who was staying at Eivor Varinsdottir's settlement of Ravensthorpe in England as he oversaw the bureau for his organization's latest chapter. In his letter, Rayhan recommended Hytham follow the example of his elder "brother" Basim Ibn Ishaq if he wished to rise through the Order's ranks.[1]

In 877, following the betrayal and apparent death of Basim, Rayhan sent another letter to Hytham expressing his dismay, and inviting him to their next council session in two years' time housed by Mentor Fuladh in the newly constructed fortress of Aluh-Amut to give a full accounting, and to confer a new rank.[2]
