Shlama beth Qidra (Šlama, daughter of Qidra, Classical Mandaic: ࡔࡋࡀࡌࡀ ࡐࡕ ࡒࡉࡃࡓࡀ, romanized: Šlama pt Qidra) was a female Mandaean priest and scribe who was active around 200 AD. Her name is found in the colophonsofLeft Ginza manuscripts, which do not bear the name of Zazai of Gawazta.^[1]

Shlama beth Qidra is the earliest Mandaean scribe named in Mandaean colophons, predating Zazai of Gawazta (fl. 270AD) by a few generations.^[2]^: 4
