The Qarmatian-Hudhayl conflicts were a series of two military confrontations between the Banu Hudhayl tribe and the armies of the Qarmatians of Bahrain which took place in the 10th century CE. The conflicts, instigated by the earlier Sack of Mecca, ended with Abu Tahir al-Jannabi fleeing from the Hijaz and returning to Bahrain.
