Muhammad ibn al-Hassan al-Bannani (1727 – 1780 CE) (1133 AH – 1194 AH) (Arabic: محمد بن الحسن البناني), more commonly referred to in books of Islamic law as al-Bannani or Imam al-Banani, was an 18th-century Muslim jurist from Fes, Morocco, and a scholar in the Maliki school of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh).

Al-Bannani was born in Fes in 1727, a city where he studied, lived for his entire life and was also buried in.

He studied under many of the scholars of his time including al-Tayyib al-Wazzani and the Sufi Ahmad ibn al-Mubarak (author of Kitab al-Ibriz).

He died in 1780 CE and was buried next to another scholar of Fes, Muhammad Mayyara, in the Darb at-Taweel cemetery near the Karaouine mosque.
