Yazid ibn Muawija, född 645, död 11 november 683, var son till kalifen Muawiya I och kalif i Damaskus från 680 till sin död.
Han är bland annat känd för att ha skickat en armé för att förfölja Husayn ibn Ali och hans anhängare vilket ledde till det historiska slaget vid Karbala. Där blev Husayn ibn Ali brutalt mördad tillsammans med sin familj och sina anhängare.
Han intog Medina kort före sin död.

Yazd I was the son of Mu'awiya, the second caliph of the Umayyads, and the sixth caliph overall. This coin was struck by his governor of Basra and Kufa, Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad. Ubayd Allah was responsible for the organization and nominal command of the Umayyad army that fought against the forces of Hussein ibn Ali at the Battle of Karbala. The battle occurred on 10 Muharram 61 AH (9 or 10 October 680 AD), during the year in which this coin was minted.
