Dhaydan bin Hithlain (died 1929) was one of the leaders of the Ajman tribe and Ikhwan movement in Arabia. He joined the Ikhwan in 1912 when it was established by Abdulaziz, later King Abdulaziz.[1] In a meeting led by Abdulaziz in October 1928 Dhaydan bin Hithlain and others were removed from their posts in the Ikhwan movement due to their challenge against Abdulaziz's rule.[2] On 30 March 1929 he and other Ikhwan leaders rebelled against Abdulaziz due to the latter's activities and fought against him in the battle of Sabilla.[3] Abdulaziz won the battle, and the Ikhwan leaders including Dhaydan bin Hithlain were arrested or perished.[1] Soon after the battle of Sabilla Dhaydan bin Hithlain was invited to the house of Abdullah bin Jiluwi who was a supporter of Abdulaziz and the governor of Al Ahsa province where he was killed.[1] He was murdered by Abdullah bin Jiluwi's son, Fahd, who was in turn killed by the members of the Ajman tribe who were accompanied Dhaydan bin Hithlain during the visit.[3]
