Khaleej () is a 1986 Pakistani television drama series written by Imran Aslam, produced and directed by Sahira Kazmi. It was the debut television serial of Sajid Hasan.

The series is notable for its soundtrack, which featured Tina Sani's rendition of Faiz Ahmed Faiz's ghazal Gar mujhe is ka yakeen ho.... The choice was considered unconventional, as Faiz was subject to an official ban from radio and television during the regime of Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq.
