Muʿāwiya ibn al-Mughīra ibn Abī al-ʿĀs ibn Umayya (Arabic: معاوية بن المغيرة بن أبي العاص بن أمية) was a member of the Banu Umayya alleged to be a spy against the Muslims during the time of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.
He was given a grace period of three days and arranged a camel and provisions for his return journey to Mecca.
Uthman departed with Muhammad for Hamra-al-Asad, and Muawiya overstayed his grace.
Though he fled by the time the army returned, Muhammad ordered his pursuit and execution.
