Muqeible (Arabic: مقيبلة, Hebrew: מוקייבלה) is an Israeli Arab village located in Israel's North District, in the Jezreel Valley between T'anach and Jenin. The village is part of the Gilboa Regional Council.

Founded in the 18th century from residents of the Samarian village Brukin, it was later abandoned and only reestablished in 1918. The village is named after a sheikh, Muqeibil, whose burial is located there. Muqeible has a mixed population of Muslims and Christian Arabs.
