Naneh Khanum Ostad (Persian: ننه‌خانم استاد), also known as Hajieh Ostad (حاجیه استاد), was a prominent and influential wife of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar. As the Shah's wife, she held a special place at the Qajar harem. However, it was her administrative abilities and political intelligence that made her one of the most influential women of the royal harem. Naneh Khanum's role at court extended beyond that of a regular wife, as she held important duties and responsibilities that granted her a distinguished position. As a sign of his affection, Fath-Ali Shah Qajar sent Naneh Khanum on a pilgrimage to Mecca, which earned her the title of Hajieh.

Her exact date of birth and death are unknown.
