Mohammad-Qoli Khan or Mohammad-Qoli Khan b. Laleh Beg (fl. 17th-century), was a Safavid official who served as the governor (beglarbeg) of the Erivan Province (also known as Chokhur-e Sa'd) in 1654–1656, succeeding the Circassian Kaykhosrow Khan Cherkes to this post.[1] According to the modern historian Rudi Matthee, during the "scheming" of incumbent grand vizier Mohammad Beg (1654–1666), by which the latter managed to get rid of his adversaries, Mohammad-Qoli Khan was probably also one of those officials who lost their job.[2]
