Assigning the role while user registration Laravel

Question

I'm trying to make a register page with role as a radio button(consumer, supplier, Admin) but it show me this error when I test the query in postman

Error: Class "App\Http\Models\Role" not found in file

my controller:

 public function register(Request $request)
    {
        $request->validate([
            'first_name'=>'required|string',
            'last_name'=>'required|string',
            'email'=>'required|string|unique:users',
            'password'=>'required|string|min:6',
            'phone_number'=>'required|string|min:10',
            'role_name'=>'required|string' 
        ]);
        
        $role_a = $request->role_name;
        if ($role_a  == 'صاحب متجر'){
            $role=Role::select('role_id')->where('role_name','صاحب متجر')->first();
            $user->roles()->attach($role);
            return response()->json($user);
        }
        elseif ($role_a  == 'مشتري'){
            $role=Role::select('role_id')->where('role_name','مشتري')->first();
            $user->roles()->attach($role);
            return response()->json($user);
        }
        $user=User::create([
            'first_name' => $request->first_name, 
            'last_name' => $request->last_name, 
            'email' => $request->email, 
            'password' => Hash::make($request->password), 
            'phone_number' => $request->phone_number,

        ]);

And my use statement:

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Models\User;
use App\Http\Models\Role;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;

And my route:

Route::post('/register','App\Http\Controllers\AuthController@register'); 

and this what I have in tables:

Note: I didn't use custom packages like spatie for example

Thank you for trying to help!

You miss adding the Request class as an argument into your method. Your method should look like this:

public function register(Request $request)
{
  //after validation
  $data = $request->validated();
}

Dont forget to add use Illuminate\Http\Request; in your use statement.
