Al-Barāʾ ibn Mālik al-Anṣārī (Arabic: البراء بن مالك الأنصاري; died c. 641)[1] was one of the Sahaba (companions of Muhammad), an Ansar belonging to the Banū al-Najjār branch of the Banu Khazraj.[1] He was the brother of Anas ibn Malik.

He died around 641-642 of wounds he received during his siege in Shushtar against the Sasanian Empire.
