                    In hagiography: Abraham of Kashkar (Abraham the Great of Kashkar, or "the elder") was a celebrated reformer of monasticism in Mesopotamia and a great saint of the Church of the East. A student of the School of Nisibis, Abraham was a missionary, ascetic, and miracle-worker. He was called "Father of the Monks of the Orient."
                    The commemoration of Abraham was May 2 among the East Syrians.
                    Earliest sources of the Life of Abraham (Abba John and Rabban Rustam) are lost, but they were used by the following:
