Mufti Muhammad Saeed Khan (Template:Lang-ur) is a Pakistani Islamic scholar and core committee member of the political party Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf (PTI).

He is a religious leader and is well-known for having solemnized the marriage of PTI's leader, Imran Khan, with Bushra Bibi.

Life and works

Khan is the founder of Al-Nadwah Educational Trust, in Islamabad, Pakistan. He edited the journals Al-Nadwah and Al-Manad and then served as the editor of Al-Hamid, a monthly journal published by the Jamia Madaniyah in Lahore. Following the 1995 Pakistani coup d'état attempt, he has been seen as a controversial figure within the religious circles.

Khan has been criticized about his theory regarding the establishment of Darul Uloom Deoband. He was attributed with a statement mentioning that the establishment of Deoband seminary was done with support from the British India government and that the government had given a plot to the seminary's founder. Khan issued a clarification in his book stating that, "In any private conversation, there is a possibility of mistakes in the four stages: speaking, listening and understanding and then drawing conclusions from this conversation. If my discussion about the first construction of Darul Uloom Deoband gives an impression that the seminary received a favor of the British government, not only that I completely deny this impression, but those who have got hurt due to this impression; I seek forgiveness from them and from Allah Ta'ala as well. After this explanation, I hope that the scholars will not be mistaken."

Khan has served at Wayne State University, the Islamic Center of Irving, and the National University of Computer and Emerging Sciences.
