Shuhada District, (Persian: شهرستان شُهدا, romanized: Šahrestâne Šohadā), is one of the 28 districts of Badakhshan Province in northeastern Afghanistan. It is located in the central-western part of the province, bordering Baharak District to the north and west, Jurm District to the east, and Yawan District to the south. The district was officially separated from Baharak District in the late 20th century as part of administrative reforms.
