Vali Muhammad Khan

Vali Muhammad Khan

Vali Muhammad Khan was a leader of the Ashtarkhanid (Janid) dynasty in the Khanate of Bukhara from 1605-1611.

He became leader after the death of his brother, Boqi Muhammad,but was opposed by Imam Quli Khan. Vali Muhammad Khan was not the popular choice to become leader and Imam Quli Khan enlisted support of many people, especially merchants and landlords. Upon hearing of a well organised assassination attempt, Vali Muhammad Khan fled the area and headed to the palace of Shah Abbas I to try and garner support. Abbas obliged the Khan, and gave him an army and sent him back to Bukhara, but the attempting at crushing the insurgency failed and Vali Muhammad Khan died. He was succeeded by Imam Quli Khan.
