Hani ibn Urwa al-Muradi (d. 680) was a 7th-century Yemeni leader of the murad tribe. In Kufa, he sheltered Muslim ibn Aqil, the representative of Husayn ibn Ali. Hani was killed by the order of Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad, the Umayyad governor of Kufa, for his loyalty to the Ahl al-Bayt. [1][2]

Hani is buried behind the Great Mosque of Kufa in Iraq, alongside Mukhtar al-Thaqafi.[3][4]
