Aidh bin Mar'i al-Yazidi (Arabic: عائض بن مرعي اليزيدي) was the first Emir of the Al Aidh Emirate which ruled over the region of 'Asir. He succeeded Ali bin Mujathal al-Mughaidi as the ruler of 'Asir and was a close friend of him as well. Aidh bin Mar'i was from the Yazid clan of the Banu Mughaidi tribe, hence the epithet al-Yazidi.
