Gauhar Ara Begum (Persian: گوہر آرا بیگم, lit. 'Adorned in Gems'; 17 June 1631 – c. 1706) was a Mughal princess and the 14th and youngest child of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan and his wife Mumtaz Mahal.
Her mother died giving birth to her in 1631. Gauhar Ara, however, survived the childbirth and lived for another three-quarters of a century. Little is known about her and whether she was involved in the war of succession for her father's throne.
Gauhar Ara died in 1706, aged about 75.
