Al Ashmur (ar|الأشمور|al-Ashmūr) is an 'uzlah in Amran District of 'Amran Governorate, Yemen.[1] [2] It is located in the highlands west of 'Amran and south of Jabal Iyal Yazid.[2] The route from 'Amran to Kuhlan Affar and Hajjah passes through this area, and there is also a route branching off to the south, towards al-Zafin and Mudaʽ.[2] This southern route was historically used by armies on occasion, as mentioned in sources such as the Ghayat al-amani of Yahya ibn al-Husyan.[2] The first mention of al-Ashmur in that source is in the year 918 (306 AH).[2] According to Hermann von Wissmann, al-Ashmur may take its name from the ruin site of Shamr.[2]
