قائمة آلهة الجزيرة العربية قبل الإسلام

شكلت الآلهة جزءًا من المعتقدات الدينية الشركية في شبه الجزيرة العربية قبل الإسلام، ووصلتنا أسماء العديد من هذه الآلهة.  كان تعدد الآلهة حتى القرن الرابع الميلادي تقريبًا هو الشكل السائد للدين في شبه الجزيرة العربية. كانت الآلهة تمثل قوى الطبيعة، والحب، والموت، وما إلى ذلك، وكان المتعبدون يتفاعلون معها من خلال مجموعة متنوعة من الطقوس.

وكانت مجامع الآلهة الرسمية أكثر وضوحًا على مستوى الممالك، بأعداد آلهة متباينة، تتراوح من دول المدن البسيطة إلى مجموعات القبائل.Robin, Christian Julien, "South Arabia, Religions in Pre-Islamic", in  ويقال بحسب المصادر الإسلامية إن الكعبة وحدها كانت تحتوي على ما يصل إلى 100 صورة للعديد من الآلهة والإلهات. كان للقبائل والمدن والعشائر والأنساب والعائلات طوائفها الخاصة أيضًا. يقترح كرستيان روبان أن هذا الهيكل للعالم الإلهي يعكس المجتمع في ذلك الوقت.

كثير من الآلهة لم تحمل أسماءاً وإنما يُشار إليها بألقابها أو صفة أو علاقة نَسَب معها أو مكان عبادتها (ذو كذا، ذات كذا).
