Sheikh Abaadir Umar Al-Rida (Harari: አባዲር ዑመር አል-ሪዳ ፈቂ ዑመር, Somali: Abaadir Umar Al-Rida, Arabic: الفقيه ابادر عمر الرضا), also known as Aw Abadir or Aw Badir was the legendary founder of Harar and a patron saint in modern-day eastern Ethiopia. The modern Harari people regard him as their common ancestor, as does the Somali Sheekhal clan.

According to the account, he along with several other religious leaders traveled to Harar from the Hijaz region of present-day Saudi Arabia in 612H (1216 AD). Sheikh Umar Al-Rida subsequently married a local Harari woman, and constructed the city's Jamia mosque.
