'''Fakir Aziz ud-Din''' ({{lang-pa|فقیرعزیزالدین / ਫ਼ਕੀਰ ਅਜ਼ੀਜ਼ ਉੱਦੀਨ}}) was a physician, linguist, diplomat, and foreign minister at the court of [[Ranjit Singh|Mahārājā Raṇjīt Siṅgh]].<ref name=eos>{{cite web |url=http://www.learnpunjabi.org/eos/ |title=AZĪZ UD-DĪN, FAQĪR (17801–845) |last1=Aijāzūddīn |first1=F.

A Muslim and in one of many non-[[Sikhs]] in Ranjit Singh's [[secular]] government of the [[Sikh Empire]].

He was the eldest son of Hakīm Ghulām Mohy ud-Dīn and had two brothers, Nūr ud-Dīn and Imām ud-Dīn. Both had senior military posts in the empire. He was apprenticed as a physician, and was originally known by the title ''Hakīm'' (physician). Later in life he adopted the title ''Fakir'' (beggar), as a mark of humility, that title appearing in British correspondence after 1826.<ref name=eos/>

His first contact with Ranjit Singh was as a physician. The Maharaja was impressed by his medical skill and proficiency in languages – Arabic, Persian and English – and granted him a jagir and a position at court. His first major assignment was to assist the Maharaja in the negotiations with the British which led to the [[Treaty of Amritsar, 1809]]. Between 1810 and 1838 there followed a great number of diplomatic assignments and tasks as an interpreter. The Maharaja had complete trust in him and rewarded him with honours and jagirs.<ref name=eos/>

Aziz ud-Din continued in the service of the Sikh Empire after the death of Ranjit Singh.
In December 1839 he represented Maharaja [[Kharak Singh]] on a mission to the British Governor-General, [[George Eden, 1st Earl of Auckland|Lord Auckland]]. In 1842, on behalf of Maharaja [[Sher Singh]], he welcomed the new Governor-General, [[Edward Law, 1st Earl of Ellenborough|Lord Ellenborough]], at Firozpur. He remained scrupulously aloof from the factional intrigues which had overtaken the Empire after Ranjit Singh's death.<ref>{{cite web

Saddened at the turn events had taken and by the death of two of his sons, Aziz ud-Din died in [[Lahore]] on 3 December 1845, aged 65.
