'''Saʿd b. ʿUbāda b. Dulaym b. Ḥāritha al-Khazrajī''' (Arabic: {{ia|سَعد بن عُبادة بن دُلَیم بن حارثة الخَزرَجي}}) (d. 15/636- | '''Saʿd b. ʿUbāda b. Dulaym b.

Before the advent of [[Islam]], he was known as Sa'd al-Kamil. Sa'd signed a treaty with the [[Prophet (s)]] in [[Pledge of al-'Aqaba|'Aqaba]] and was one of the [[Twelve Naqibs|twelve heads]] there. | ||
After the demise of the Prophet (s), few leaders from [[Ansar]] gathered in [[Event of Saqifa Bani Sa'ida|Saqifa]] intending to elect Sa'd b. 'Ubada 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. | After the demise of the Prophet (s), few leaders from [[Ansar]] gathered in [[Event of Saqifa Bani Sa'ida|Saqifa]] intending to elect Sa'd b.

The tiff between Sa'd and the government continued. It is narrated that 'Umar, during his regime told him to either pledge allegiance or to leave [[Medina]].

Regarding his cause of death too, there is disagreement. One party believes that during the rule of 'Umar, Sa'd was invited to pledge allegiance to the caliph but he refused to do so and left intending to move to Hawran in Damascus and died on the way. Others believe that he was killed by the [[jinn]]s. | Regarding his cause of death too, there is disagreement.
