Rawwadid, Ravvadid (also Revend or Revendi), or Banū Rawwād (Arabic: بنو رَوّاد) was a Muslim dynasty of Arab origin that initially controlled Tabriz and north-eastern Azerbaijan in the late 8th and early 9th centuries. Their descendants, who later became Kurdicized and are described in medieval sources as Kurdish, ruled over Azerbaijan and parts of Armenia in the second half of the 10th and much of the 11th century.
