Jarmaq (Arabic: الجرمق) is a municipality in the Jezzine District in southern Lebanon, located 82 kilometers (51 mi) southeast of the capital Beirut.

[2] The Syrian geographer Yaqut al-Hamawi (d. 1226) mentioned that Jarmaq was a district of Safed and the site of an ancient town by the same name.

[3] In the 1596 tax records, it was named as a village, Jarman, in the Ottoman nahiya (subdistrict) of Shaqif Arnun, part of Safad Sanjak, with a population of 52 households and 6 bachelors, all Muslims.

The villagers paid taxes on goats and beehives, "occasional revenues", a press for olive oil or grape syrup, "dulab", in addition to a fixed sum; a total of 5,502 akçe.

On 5 April 1992 Israeli soldiers shot dead two guerillas planting a roadside bomb in Al-Jarmaq.
