ʿAbdul Ḥamīd Khān Yūsufzaī (Bengali: আবদুল হামিদ খান ইউসফজয়ী; 1845–1915) is a Bengali writer, journalist, and politician.[1][2]

Yusufzai was born in 1845 to a Bengali Muslim family from the village of Charan in Kalihati, Tangail, Bengal Presidency, British Raj (now in Bangladesh). His family traced their ancestry to Pashtuns of the Yusufzai tribe, who had migrated from Afghanistan to Bengal and become culturally assimilated. He worked as an estate manager at the Delduar zamindar estate in Tangail along with notable writer Mir Mosharraf Hossain.[3] He was married to Aziz-un-Nisa.[4]
