Juhaynah (Arabic: جهينة‎‎;also transiterated as Djuhaynah or Johaynah) is a nomad tribe of the Arabian Peninsula and the largest clan of Banu Quda'a. Juhaynah are one of the most powerful Arabian tribes that rule important parts of the Hijaz. The Almarwani clan of the Juhaynah tribes are the leaders of the tribe. Almarwani clan are still live in the Arabian Peninsula, Saudi Arabia mostly in the city of Umluj or Omluj.

The Juhaynah had a reputation for being good poets, so that they remember their poems, handed down as Juhayna Ayyam (the days glory of Juhaynah), as well as trying to remember one of its members, 'Abd al-Dar b. Hudayb, to build a Qawdam (an artifact that could compete with the Kaaba in Mecca), since the time of Jahiliyya able to attract many pilgrims and create a trade fair where he concluded lucrative business.

Relations with Yathrib were overall good, so much so that, at the Battle of Bu'ath of 617, the Juhaynah fought with the Arab tribe of Banu Khazraj, while Badr were on the side of Banu Aws. They reached an agreement with Muhammad, once these installed himself with his Muslim followers to Medina, which allowed them not to embrace the Islamic religion which, however, later converted, becoming perhaps the first tribal group fighting alongside Muslims the affirmation of their cause.

In the conquest of Mecca (629 CE) it was present with 800 warriors and 50 knights, although figures Al-Tabari provides are more generous still, with approximately 1,400 men.
