Samiullah Khan (Urdu: سمیع اللہ خان) (born September 6, 1951, Bahawalpur, Pakistan) is a former field hockey player from Pakistan, who was nicknamed "The Flying Horse" because of his great speed. He played as a left winger for his native country in 1970s and 1980s.
He was instrumental in Pakistan's bronze medal in the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, and winning gold in Asian Games in Bangkok in 1978.
