Majd al-Din Muhammad Khvafi (Persian: مجد الدین محمد خوافی; died August 1494) was a Persian[1] bureaucrat, who was one of the leading figures of the Timurid Empire in the late 15th-century. Belonging to a family of bureaucrats from Khvaf, Majd al-Din dominated the government of Sultan Husayn Bayqara (r. 1469–1506) in 1472–1478 and 1487–1490. He was ultimately dismissed in 1490, and later murdered by the hands of his rivals en route to Mecca.
