Inayatullah Khan Mashriqi (Punjabi: عنایت اللہ خاں مشرقی; August 1888 – 27 August 1963), also known by the honorary title Allama Mashriqi (علامہ مشرقی), was a British Indian, and later, Pakistani mathematician, logician, political theorist, Islamic scholar and the founder of the Khaksar movement.[1]

Around 1930, he founded the Khaksar Movement,[4] aiming both to revive Islam among Muslims as well as to advance the condition of the masses irrespective of any faith, sect, or religion.[5]
