Asmodeus

Asmodeus as depicted in [[Collin de Plancy Asmodeus (; , ''Asmodaios'') or Ashmedai (; ; ; see below for other variations) is a king of demons in the legends of Solomon and the constructing of Solomon's Temple.

His story features variously in Talmudic stories where he is the king of the ''shedim''. The Quran refers to a "puppet" in the Story of Solomon in Surah Ṣād verses 30-40, which is according to the ''mufassirūn'' (authorized exegetes of the Quran) referring to the demon-king Asmodeus (Sakhr).

In Christianity, Asmodeus is mostly known from the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit. He is the primary antagonist and disrupts the marriages of Sarah. Peter Binsfeld classifies Asmodeus as the "demon of lust". Provided by Wikipedia
