Umayya ibn Abdallah ibn Khalid ibn Asid al-Umawi (Arabic: أمية بن عبد الله بن خالد بن أسيد, romanized: Umayya ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn Khālid ibn Asīd; 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".[2]
