'He who looks for help to God'), was the first member of the Banu Hud family to rule the medieval taifa of Zaragoza, today a province in Spain. He ruled from 1039 (when he seized control of the city from the Banu Tujib) to 1046.

In the chaos, power was seized by Sulayman b. Hud. Sulayman came from a family which claimed descent from the Arab tribe of Judham. Like al-Mundhir al-TujIbi, he had risen in the army of al-Mansur, and when the caliphate collapsed, he took over Tudela and Lleida. He had also acquired a reputation as a warrior against Sancho the Great of Navarre and when he arrived in Zaragoza, ostensibly to avenge the assassinated al-Mundhir al-Tujibi, he was widely welcomed. He and his family soon acquired a firm grip on the Taifa, and he installed his sons as governors in Zaragoza, Calatayud, Huesca, Tudela and Lleida. The Tujibis disappeared from the scene and it was the Hudids who were to rule the Taifa until its annexation by the Almoravids in 1110. (13)
