The Ghāfirī (also Ghafiri or al-Ghafiriyah) are one of two major tribal confederations of Oman, the other being the Hināwī.

Both confederations claim their origin to the Bedouin tribe; the Ghafiri also trace their roots to the Nizari or Adnani tribes.

Both groups provide support to the ruling sultans to further their own interests.

The Ghafiri are Sunni Muslim.
