Ein Naqquba (Lang-ar|عين نقوبا; Lang-he|שריגים) is an Arab village in central Israel. Located west of Jerusalem, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2007 it had a population of 2,000.

The village was established in 1962 by refugees from the village of Bayt Naqquba, which had been abandoned during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, and whose lands had become Beit Nekofa. It was part of Ein Rafa until 1976, when it was recognised as a separate village.
