Qaid ibn Hammad ibn Buluggin ({{Langx|ar|قائد بن حماد بن بلكين}}), (Qayid bin Hammad bin bolowjin) was the second Hammadid ruler in what is now Algeria.
Life
He succeeded his father Hammad ibn Buluggin in 1029. He named his brother Yusuf as governor of North Africa, and another brother, Ouighlan, governor of Hamza (modern day Bouira). In 1038 he was attacked by Hammama, lord of Fes but pushed him back after which Hammama requested peace and declared his submission to the Hammadids.Idris, Hady Rodger (1962).

In 1048, when al-Muizz declared himself subject of the Abbasid caliph of Baghdad, Qaid confirmed his allegiance to the Fatimid caliphs of Egypt, obtaining by caliph Ma'ad al-Mustansir Billah the title of Sharaf al-Dawla.
