Soltan-Ahmad Mirza Azod od-Dowleh (Persian: سلطان احمد میرزا عضدالدوله; 16 July 1824 – 1902) was a Qajar prince and official in 19th-century Iran, who is known for composing the memoir Tarikh-e Azodi.

[1] Azod od-Dowleh served in a number of positions of authority during his life, including as governor of Borujerd, Malayer, Tuyserkan, Hamadan, and Qazvin.

[1] Azod od-Dowleh earned a reputation for having an extraordinary recollection of the life at his father's court.

His grandnephew Naser al-Din Shah Qajar (r. 1848–1896), noticed this and asked Azod od-Dowleh, via Mohammad Hasan Khan E'temad os-Saltaneh, to record these short stories for future generations.

In this way, the memoir refutes widely held beliefs that depict women as submissive figures meant to fit into the patriarchal and dominant religious systems of the era.
