'''Nawab Sayyid Hamid Ali Khan Bahadur''' {{post-nominals|country=GBR|GCSI|GCVO|GCIE}} (31 August 1875–20 June 1930) was [[Nawab]] of the [[princely state]] of [[Rampur State|Rampur]] from 1889 to 1930.

Only thirteen when he ascended the throne of Rampur, he ruled under a [[Regent|regency]] to 1896, when [[Victor Bruce, 9th Earl of Elgin]] invested him with full ruling powers. During his reign, his [[salute]] was raised from 13-guns to 15 as a result of Sir Hamid's army seeing distinguished service in the [[Middle East]], [[Afghanistan]] and [[German East Africa]] during [[World War I]]. A staunch supporter of higher education, Sir Nawab Hamid gave generously to many colleges across the subcontinent, including the [[King George Medical College|Lucknow Medical College]] and [[Aligarh Muslim University]], also greatly expanding the number of educational institutions within his state. He was instrumental in foundation of [[Shia College, Lucknow]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JvsKAQAAMAAJ&q=%22Shia+College%22|title=Islam and the Modern Age|date=1992|publisher=Islam and the Modern Age Society.|language=en}}</ref>

Dying in 1930 at the age of 54, after a 41-year reign, Sir Hamid was buried at [[Karbala]], [[Iraq]]. He was succeeded by his son, Sir [[Raza Ali Khan Bahadur]].{{cn|date=August 2020}}
