Sheikh Badr (Arabic: تلة الشيخ بدر, romanized: Talla aš-Šayḫ Badr, lit. 'Hill of Sheikh Badr' Arabic pronunciation: [tɑl.let ɑʃ.ʃeːx badᵉr] (listen); Hebrew: שייח' באדר) was a Palestinian Arab village on a hilltop in west Jerusalem. The Haganah expelled its population during the 1947–1948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine. From 1948 to 1951, Sheikh Badr Cemetery, a temporary Jewish cemetery was established here; a few hundred graves still remain from that time. After 1949, the area was incorporated into a new area called Givat Ram.
