Mirza Mughal, born Muhammad Zahir ud-din Mirza (1817 – 23 September 1857), was a Mughal prince. He played a significant role during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. He was one of the Mughal princes shot dead at one of the gates of Old Delhi, which gate thereafter came to be known as "Khooni Darwaza" (lit. 'bloody gate' or 'murder gate').
