Lalla Bahia bint Antar (Arabic: للاة بهية بنت عنتر; unknown – 3 September 2008) was the third wife of Mohammed V of Morocco, who reigned from 1927 until 1961.[1] Bahia was also the mother of Princess Lalla Amina of Morocco.[1]

Lalla Bahia was a lady from a wealthy Berber family and she had Glaoua origins.[2] Abdelssadeq el-Glaoui explained that just like Lalla Abla bint Tahar,[2] her husband's second wife, Lalla Bahia was chosen from the house Glaoui.[2] However, it is not specified whether it is on her maternal or paternal side that she has Glaoua origins.

Bahia died on 3 September 2008.[3] Her funeral was held at the Moulay El Hassan Mausoleum at the Dar al-Makhzen in Rabat, Morocco.[4][1]
