The revolt of Zulfiqar Khan was a pro-Ottoman revolt led by Zulfiqar Khan against the Safavids. Zulfiqar Khan belonged to the Mawsillu tribe and was the Safavid governor of Iranian Kurdistan, but revolted in Baghdad in 1528, capturing the city and killing the governor, his uncle Ibrahim Khan. He then pledged allegiance to the Ottomans, although the Safavids had recaptured Baghdad in 1529 and Zulfiqar Khan was killed. The Safavids lost control of Baghdad again in 1534 to the Ottomans.
