The Nasrid Emirate (Arabic: الامارة النصرية, Vaktrian: İmaraıla Nasr), also known as the Emirate of Softemla, was a Haythamite emirate centered around the city of Softemla. The Emirate was mostly populated by Haythamites, a Shiya Vaktrian ethnoreligious group, with minority Vaktrian Christian and Imrani populations. The Emirate was ruled and founded by the Nasrid dynasty. In 1204, the Haythamites revolted against the Haltemid Caliphate and established the Haythamite Emirate in 1206.
