Sheikh Abdussamad Esfahani, (Persian: شیخ عبدالصمد اصفهانی), also spelled Abdul Samad, 'Abd al-Samad, or Abd-ul-Samad, was a famous Ilkhanid era Shi'ite Sufi of the 13th century.

After Abdussamad's death in 1299 CE, his disciple, the Ilkhanid vizier Zayn al-Din Mastaria, built a  [fa] in Natanz in his honor. The congregational (Jameh) mosque of Natanz was built around the tomb.
