Jalinus (, also or ) was a 7th-century Sasanian military leader. He may have been of Armenian noble origin. He was reportedly the commander of the ruler's personal guard and was tasked with guarding Khosrow II during the latter's imprisonment. He was one of the commanders of the Sasanian army during the Arab conquest of Iran and was killed at the Battle of al-Qadisiyyah in 636.
== Background and identity == The name of Jalinus appears to be the Arabic form of a Greek name. C. E. Bosworth supposes that he was Christian who had adopted a Christian name in addition to his Persian name, which remains unknown. According to Parvaneh Pourshariati, the name was most likely not his personal name but rather a title. In Pourshariati's view, he was probably a member of one of the Armenian noble dynasties that played an important role in the Sasanian Empire at that time. He may have been the same person as Mushegh III Mamikonian or Gregory of Siwnik, who both also served the Sasanians in the early 7th century and fell at the Battle of al-Qadisiyyah.
