Mufti Zar Wali Khan (1953 – 7 December 2020), was a Pakistani Islamic scholar, writer and Friday sermon preacher.

[6] He often gave sermons about muslim unity in the modern era and would speak about leaders such as Saladin, Mahmud Ghaznavi, Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi and Mulla Omar.

During the Soviet Afghan war Zia-Ul-Haq would send Arms intended for the Mujahideen through Khan who would smuggle them through his acquaintances via the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.

[7] His death was condoled by Imran Ismail, Noor-ul-Haq Qadri,[5] Muhammad Rafi Usmani, Muhammad Taqi Usmani, Fazal-ur-Rehman, Sirajul Haq and Abdur Razzaq Iskander.

[9] However, Qari Usman, a leader of Jamiat Ulama-e-Islam rejected this claim and said that Khan was a chronic cardiac patient and did not die due to the coronavirus.
