The 2022 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat was the 13th edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting in Rabat, Morocco. Held on 5 June at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, it was the fourth leg of the 2022 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit.

The meeting was highlighted by national favorite Soufiane El Bakkali winning the 3000 metres steeplechase over Lamecha Girma in a world-leading 7:58.28, marking the first time two athletes ran under 8 minutes in the same race since 2012. The biggest cause for concern was 2021 Olympic champion Karsten Warholm pulling up injured, previewing his struggles in 2022 following a year that earned him World Athlete of the Year.[1]
