Muḥammad ibn Yūsuf ibn al-Ḥakam ibn Abī ʿAqīl al-Thaqafī (Arabic: محمد بن يوسف بن الحكم بن أبي عقيل الثقفي) was a governor of the Umayyad Caliphate in the early 8th century.
The brother of the powerful governor of Iraq, al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf, Muhammad served under his brother as deputy governor for Fars.[1] He is credited as the founder of the city of Shiraz, which became the capital of Fars, in 693.[2][3] He later served as governor for the Yemen.[1] He died in the latter office in 714/5.[4] His daughter Umm al-Hajjaj married caliph Yazid II (r. 620–624), and their son, al-Walid II (r. 743–744), ruled as the eleventh Umayyad caliph.[5]
