Al-Qasim al-Ma'mun ibn Hammud (Arabic: القاسم المأمون بن حمّود, died 1036) was an Arab Caliph of Córdoba in Muslim Spain for two periods, 1018 to 1021, and again for a short time in 1023 until he was driven from the city. Al-Qasim was the brother of the Caliph Ali ibn Hammud al-Nasir and claimed the throne on 28 March 1018 shortly after his brother was assassinated. His reign was described in Ibn al-Khatib's A'mal al-a'lam. At the outset of al-Qasim's reign, conspirators who had been plotting to overthrow his brother convinced the grandson of Abd al-Rahman III, Abd al-Rahman ibn Muhammad ibn al-Malik to claim the throne.
