Bayan Jumah (Arabic: بيان جمعة) is a Syrian swimmer from Aleppo.[1][2] In August 2008, she withdrew from a heat in the 50 meter freestyle in which she would have faced Olympian Anya Gostomelsky, refusing to swim alongside an Israeli.[3][4] Gostomelsky set a new Israeli national record in the race.[3] Asked what her reaction was, Gostomelsky said: "I didn't notice that the lane was empty. That's her problem."[3][5][6]

At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she competed in the Women's 100 metre freestyle, finishing in 40th place overall out of 48 swimmers in the first round heats, failing to qualify for the second round.[7]
