Mahabat Khan (Urdu: مهابت خان) (full title Mahabat Khan Khan-e-Khanan Sipah-Salar Zamana Beg Kabuli), born Zamana Beg (died October 1634), was a prominent Mughal general and statesman, perhaps best known for his coup against the Mughal Emperor Jahangir in 1626. He also served as the Subahdar of Malwa Subah from 1611 to 1623 and Bengal Subah during 1625–1626. He earned the title Khan-i-Khanan from emperor Shah Jahan. He was a disciple of Mujadid Alif Sani Sheikh Ahmad Sirhindi, and led a revolt against Mughal Emperor Jahangir due to his imprisonment of the Mujadid Alif Sani.
