Musaibat (Arabic: ديرة المسيبات, romanized: Dīrt l-Msībāt) is a small agricultural and livestock village, located in the northeast of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), in the Hajar Mountains, Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah.

The village has about 20 houses, huts and stone cabins; corrals and terraces supported by dry stone walls, without mortar, which allow water and soil to be retained, destined for pastures and other agricultural uses; pipelines to collect runoff water; sheepfolds; and some other constructions in ruins. At present, it is inhabited only by a single family. Inaccessible by road.

Musaibat is located to the west and very close to the cliff that geographically delimits that part of the border between United Arab Emirates and Oman, a short distance from Jabal Sal (1,575 m), and surrounded in the middle by the two great wadis of the area: to the north and west the Wadi Jib, and to the south the Wadi Arus, both tributaries of the Wadi Shah.

To the southeast is the semi-abandoned village of Yinainir, and to the west the current village of Lahsa, on the banks of the Wadi Jib, from which Musaibat is accessed following a well-defined donkey trail, which town inhabitants use daily to transfer food and other merchandise, generally on the back of donkeys.

The area of Musaibat was historically inhabited by the Bani Shatair (Arabic: بني شطير) tribe, one of the two main sections of the semi-nomadic tribe Shihuh, occupying, among other territories, the tribal area of Bani Bakhit.

The name of this village was not recorded in the documentation and maps produced between 1950 and 1960 by the British Arabist, cartographer, military officer and diplomat Julian F. Walker during the work he carried out to establish borders between the then called Trucial States, later completed by the Ministry of Defense of the United Kingdom, on 1:100,000 scale maps published in 1971. Nonetheless, historical references to this place, and its name, have been preserved through the meticulous studies and publications carried out by the British anthropologist William Lancaster.
