Muqarrab Khan of Golconda, also known as Khan Zaman Fath Jang Dakhini, was an Indian Deccani Muslim military officer,[2] who was the most experienced commander of the Qutb Shahi Dynasty, during the reign of Abul Hasan Qutb Shah.[3] He betrayed Shah during the Siege of Golconda and arrested the Maratha emperor Sambhaji at Sangameshwar, with the help of Maratha traitors.[citation needed]
Khan was a political rival of Shah's viziers Madanna and Akkanna.[4][5][6] After Shah's defeat by the Mughals, Khan retreated to Golconda, and following its capture by the Mughals, he became its de facto ruler.[citation needed]
