Takhar (Taahkarr) is a lesser divinity of the Serer people of Senegal, the Gambia and Mauritania, venerated as the god of justice and vengeance. Devotees who have suffered theft, injury or sorcery appeal to him for redress, bringing offerings to the foot of tall forest trees held sacred to him. He is conceived as the adversary of Tiurakh, the god of wealth, with whom he shares a dwelling in the highest trees of the forest. Both figures were recorded by French colonial-era ethnographers of Senegambia and discussed within the broader Serer religious system centred on the supreme being Roog.
