Al-Mahawil (Arabic: المحاويل) also Mahawil, Al Maḩāwīl, Qaḑā’ al Maḩāwīl, and Khān al Mahawīl) is one of a very few Sunni Arab towns in southern Iraq in the Babil Governorate.

Before the invasion of Iraq, Sunnis made up the vast majority.

Today, they are a shrinking minority of the population due to the influx of Shias from the surrounding countryside.
