Umayya ibn Abdallah ibn Khalid ibn Asid

Umayya ibn Abdallah ibn Khalid ibn Asid al-Umawi (; died early 700s) was an Umayyad prince and governor of Khurasan between 692/93 or 694 and 697/98. According to historian Hugh N. Kennedy, Umayya was known to be "easygoing, generous, peace-loving and, his enemies alleged, pompous and effeminate".

Life Umayya was a son of Abdallah ibn Khalid ibn Asid, a former governor of Kufa. They were members of the Umayyad dynasty, which had been ruling the caliphate since 661. Umayyad authority across the caliphate had collapsed in 684, but was reconstituted under Marwan I in Syria and Egypt in 685. His son Abd al-Malik reasserted Umayyad rule over Arabia, Iraq and Khurasan between 691 and 692. He appointed Umayya's brother Khalid governor of Basra, while his initial appointee in Khurasan was Bukayr ibn Wisha, a member of the Tamim, an Arab tribe and faction from which many of the Muslim troops of Khurasan hailed.

At the time of the Umayyad restoration, conflict between various factions within the Tamim was rife and left them vulnerable to local powers. Abd al-Malik agreed and appointed Umayya in place of Bukayr, either in 691/92, 692/93 or in 693/94. to which Umayya appointed his son Abd Allah as lieutenant governor.

Umayya's principal domestic challenge was reconciling the various factions of Tamim. In 696, he charged Bukayr with command of a military campaign against the Bukharans in Transoxiana, but again recanted as a result of Bahir's intrigues. Instead, Umayya personally led the expedition and ordered Bukayr to remain in Merv to assist his son Ziyad, who he had left in charge. Umayya defeated Bukayr but spared his life and offered him generous sums in return for his quiescence. However, the peace between them was short-lived: Bukayr resumed his intrigues, and Umayya had him summoned and then executed by Bahir. Umayya was consistently bogged down by Tamimi revolts and internecine rivalry, and thus unable to seriously challenge Musa. After executing Bukayr, he dispatched troops to conquer Tirmidh in 697, but they were defeated by Musa. The latter, in turn, appointed al-Muhallab ibn Abi Sufra as his deputy governor in the province. Umayya later retired to the Jordan district and died in al-Sinnabra before the end of Abd al-Malik's reign in 705. He died in the so-called plague of the maidens, which may have also killed Abd al-Malik.
