The Banu Jumah (Arabic: بنو جُمح, romanizedBanū Jumaḥ) was an Arab clan of the Quraysh. They are notable for being allies to the polytheist Meccans and being in war with the Muslims. They are related to the Banu Sahm, as they both were part of a larger clan descended from the same ancestor, the Banu Husays.[1][2]

In the Battle of the Camel, a group of Banu Jumah was with A'ishah, according to the Shia.[3]
