Khabeeruddin Ahmed (also spelled Kabeeruddin, Kabiruddin or K. Ahmed; 1870 – March 1939) was a politician, lawyer, and a member of Central Legislative Assembly of British India.[1][2] He was a founding member of the all India independent Democratic Party,[3] and later became a leader of the All-India Muslim League.[4]

Born at Biswanathpur village in Chapai Nawabganj (now in Bangladesh), Khabeeruddin was admitted at the University of Cambridge, and trained as a barrister at the Gray's Inn in London.[5][6] Upon his return to British India, he enrolled at the Calcutta High Court, and took an interest in British Indian national politics.[7] In addition, he practiced law at the Federal Court of India when it was established in New Delhi. Khabeeruddin died in New Delhi in March 1939.[8] He was a member of the Central Legislative Assembly until the last day of his life.[9]
