Ayuba Suleiman Diallo (1701 — 1773), juga dikenal sebagai Job ben Solomon, adalah Muslim yang dikenal menjadi korban dari Perdagangan budak Atlantik. Lahir di Bundu, Senegal (Afrika Barat), memoar Ayuba diterbitkan sebagai salah satu narasi budak yang paling awal, yaitu, cerita orang pertama dari perdagangan budak, menurut Thomas Bluett pada Some Memories of the Life of Job, the Son of the Solomon High Priest of Boonda in Africa; Who was enslaved about two Years in Maryland; and afterwards being brought to England, was set free, and sent to his native Land in the Year 1734. Namun, versi ini bukan cerita orang pertama. Sebuah catatan tangan pertama dari penangkapan Ayuba dan akhirnya kembali ke rumah dapat ditemukan di Travels into the Interior Parts of Africa oleh Francis Moore.
