Awja al-Janah

Awja al-Janah (Arabic: عوجة الجنا; also spelled Awj al-Janah or A'waj al-Jana) is a village in central Syria, administratively part of the Hama Governorate. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Awja al-Janah had a population of 489 in the 2004 census. Its inhabitants are Sunni Muslims.

In the late 19th or early 20th centuries, Awja al-Janah was sold by the Bani Khalid, a partly Bedouin tribe in central Syria to the Barazi, a prominent landowning family from Hama. Its inhabitants were Sunni Muslim tenant farmers.
