Abdallah al-Battal (; "Abdallah the Hero", died in 740) was a Muslim warrior of the Arab–Byzantine Wars of the early 8th century, participating in several of the campaigns launched by the Umayyad Caliphate against the Byzantine Empire. Historical facts about his life are scarce, but an extensive pseudo-historical and legendary tradition grew around him after his death, and he became a famous figure in both Arab and later Turkish epic literature as Sayyid Battal Ghazi.
