Physical Description

In Arabic mythology, Bahamut is usually described as an unimaginably large fish. To paint a picture of his size, ancient mythology states that,

“ALL OF THE WATERS IN THE WORLD, PLACED IN ONE OF HIS NOSTRILS, WOULD BE LIKE A MUSTARD SEED IN A DESERT.”

Some myths describe Bahamut as having the head of a hippopotamus or an elephant. Occasionally, he is given a more monstrous form, appearing as a sea-serpent with limbs and fierce teeth.

Hebrew texts abandon Bahamut’s fish form altogether, and describe him as an enormous, river-dwelling creature with “strength in his loins, […] force in the navel of his belly, […] tail like a cedar, and […] bones like bars of iron.”
