'''Saʿd b. ʿUbāda b. Dulaym b. Ḥāritha al-Khazrajī''' (Arabic: {{ia|سَعد بن عُبادة بن دُلَیم بن حارثة الخَزرَجي}}) (d. 15/636-37) was from the chiefs of [[Medina]] and the leader of the [[Khazraj]] tribe. Before the advent of [[Islam]], he was known as Sa'd al-Kamil.

'Ubadah as their [[caliph]], but after the arrival of [[Abu Bakr]], [['Umar]] and [[Abu 'Ubaydah al-Jarrah]], the people were inclined towards Abu Bakr and paid [[allegiance]] to him. Sa'd never pledged allegiance to the [[first caliph|first]] or [[second caliph]]. He was killed during the reign of 'Umar b. al-Khattab and some believed him to be killed by the [[Jinn]]s. | ||

Sa'd and his forefathers were known for their generosity in the Age of Ignorance and even after it because of their honor, dignity, and open-handedness in giving feasts in Medina.
