Khaliq Dina Hall (Urdu: خالق دینا ہال), also spelled Khaliq Deena Hall, is a library and hall located in Karachi, Pakistan. The building was built in 1906, and was after Ghulam Hoosain Khalikdina - a wealthy merchant and philanthropist who was the main financier for the building, and who wished for Karachi's Muslims to have a space for literary pursuits.[1] It currently has a hall which is used for various events, a library, and a room that serves as the office of a local NGO.[2][3]
