'''ʿUbayd Allāh b. al-Ḥurr al-Juʿfī''' (Arabic: {{ia|عُبَیدَالله بن الحر الجُعفي}}) was among those who did not accept the call of [[Imam al-Husayn (a)]] for accompanying him, but he did not accept and did not accompany Imam (a).

'Ubayd Allah b. Hurr al-Ju'fi was a brave man and an advocate of [['Uthman b. 'Affan]]. When 'Uthman was killed, he joined [[Mu'awiya]] and in the [[Battle of Siffin]] fought against the army of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]]. After the [[martyrdom]] of Imam Ali (a), 'Ubayd Allah went to [[Kufa]].

When Imam al-Husayn (a) moved toward Kufa, 'Ubayd Allah went out of Kufa so that he does not encounter Imam (a). However, near [[Karbala]], he encountered Imam (a). When Imam al-Husayn (a) arrived in Qasr Bani Muqatil, or according to another report, to [[Qatqataniyya]], some farsakhs from Karbala, he saw a tent and asked to whom it belonged? They said that it belonged to 'Ubayd Allah b. Hurr al-Ju'fi. Imam (a) sent someone to him (most books have reported that this person was [[Hajjaj b. Masruq al-Ju'fi]]) to invite him to help the camp of Imam (a), but he excused and said, "I did not come out of Kufa, but because I was afraid that al-Husayn (a) goes there and I would not be able to help him." The person Imam (a) had sent, returned and delivered 'Ubayd Allah's answer to Imam (a).

According to what is mentioned in sources, Imam al-Husyan (a) went to his tent, sat and praised God and said, "O man, you have done many mistakes in the past and God will ask you for your actions; don't you want to return to Him in these hours and help me so that my grandfather intercedes for you on the [[Day of Judgement]]?" He said, "O son of the [[Prophet (s)]], if I come to help you, I will be killed at the beginning before you, and I am not consent to die, but take horse of mine; by God I swear no one has ever gone with it to pursue anything except they have reached it and no one has ever chased me unless it has surpassed it and I have been rescued." Imam al-Husayn (a) turned his face from him and said, "I do not either need you or your horse." and then recited this verse from the [[Sura al-Kahf]],

Following the [[Uprising of al-Mukhtar al-Thaqafi]] in [[66]]/685 to revenge for the blood of Imam al-Husayn (a), 'Ubayd Allah joined him and together with [[Ibrahim b. Malik al-Ashtar]] went to fight with [[Ibn Ziyad]]. Ibrahim was worried about his presence among his soldiers and told al-Mukhtar in secret, "I fear that 'Ubayd Allah b. Hurr leaves me alone in a critical time." But, al-Mukhtar told him, "Be nice to him and fill his eyes with wealth! He loves the world."

Ibrahim al-Ashtar went to Tikrit with him and appointed him as the agent of taxes in the region. He then distributed the taxes among the companions and sent five thousand Dirhams for him. 'Ubayd Allah became angry and objected and claimed that Ibrahim had taken more for himself. Ibrahim swore that he had not done so, and sent to him more, but he still was not contented and revolted against al-Mukhtar and broke the promise he had with him. He looted the villages around Kufa and killed the agents of al-Mukhtar and confiscated their properties and went to [[Mus'ab b. al-Zubayr]] in [[Basra]]. Then, al-Mukhtar sent some people to destroy his house in Kufa.
