'''Sadaq Khān''' ({{lang-bn|সাদক খান}}), also known as '''Mohammad Sadeq Khan''' ({{lang-bn|মোহাম্মদ সাদেক খান}}, {{lang-fa|{{Nastaliq|صادق خان}}}}), was a [[Faujdar]] of the [[Mughal Bengal]]'s [[Sylhet region|Sylhet Sarkar]]. He succeeded [[Farhad Khan]] as faujdar in 1688.<br />

==Life==<br />
In 1678, Farhad Khan took a one year break from being the faujdar of Sylhet as he was appointed the task of being the faujdar of [[Chittagong]]. During this time, Sadeq may have been the regent faujdar. It is said that Sadeq was ordered by Farhad to have built a mosque (which now remains incomplete) west of the former Sylhet Police lines.<ref>{{cite book|title=Hazrat Shah Jalal O Sileter Itihas|author=[[Syed Murtaza Ali]]|pages=56 & 94|year=1965}}</ref><br />
<br />
In 1688, Sadeq also granted land to his citizens.<ref name=proceed>{{cite book|title=The Proceedings Of The All Pakistan History Conference|volume=1|chapter=A chronology of Muslim faujdars of Sylhet|publisher=Pakistan Historical Society|url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.66554/page/n297|location=[[Karachi]]|author=[[Syed Mohammad Ali]]|pages=281}}</ref> He gave land to Kashmishwar Chakrabarti, father of Ramchandra Chakrabarti, in Longla Pargana.<ref>{{cite book|author=[[Achyut Charan Choudhury|Choudhury, Achyut Charan]]|title=Srihatter Itibritta: Uttorangsho|year=2000|orig-year=1916|publisher=Kotha|location=Kolkata|language=Bangla|url=https://bn.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%BE:%E0%A6%B6%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%80%E0%A6%B9%E0%A6%9F%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%9F%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B0_%E0%A6%87%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%AC%E0%A7%83%E0%A6%A4%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A4_(%E0%A6%89%E0%A6%A4%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%82%E0%A6%B6)_-_%E0%A6%85%E0%A6%9A%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%AF%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%9A%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%A3_%E0%A6%9A%E0%A7%8C%E0%A6%A7%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%80_%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%A4%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A4%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%AC%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%A7%E0%A6%BF.pdf/%E0%A7%AB%E0%A7%AF%E0%A7%A9|page=194}}</ref> Faujdar Enayatullah Khan was the next known faujdar after Sadeq.<br />
<br />
An inscription on a certain [[mazar (mausoleum)]] in the [[Shah Jalal Dargah|dargah of Shah Jalal]] was found to have been built in 1689. [[Syed Murtaza Ali]] is of the opinion that this is possibly the grave of Sadeq.<ref>{{cite book|title=Hazrat Shah Jalal O Sileter Itihas|author=[[Syed Murtaza Ali]]|pages=56 & 94|year=1965}}</ref><br />
