Begum Mussarat Mahmood Shaukat Hyat Khan (May 1, 1924 – June 30, 2012) was a Pakistani humanitarian, society figure, and a prominent witness to the political evolution of the Indian subcontinent. As the wife of Sardar Shaukat Hayat Khan—a key lieutenant to Muhammad Ali Jinnah—she played a vital role in supporting the Pakistan Movement and later dedicated decades to providing medical and social aid to impoverished communities in the North-West Frontier Province.
