Arrakhat is the name of a fictional supervillain within the DC Comics Universe. He is a villain, first appearing in Robin and later in the Justice Society of America.
According to Quraci myth, the demon Arrakhat is an evil djinn from the O'salla Ben Duuram, or "Oasis of the Damned" one of the descending circles in Hell. Instead of granting three wishes to the invoker, the demon offers three murders and upon completion returns to the so called "Well of Flames". Arghulian was an enemy of Tim Drake's classmate Ali Ben Kahn who was the prince of Dhubar. Arghulian then summoned Arrakhat to kill the prince. Arrakhat was stopped by Robin, Connor Hawke and Eddie Fyres. Arrakhat recently resurfaced again, that time as part of Tapeworm's ambush against Justice Society of America. He was expelled from our dimension by Doctor Fate (Kent V. Nelson).
