Afzal Khan (died 20 November 1659) was a general who served the Adil Shahi dynasty of Bijapur Sultanate in India. He played an important role in the southern expansion of the Bijapur Sultanate by subjugating the Nayaka chiefs who had taken control of the former Vijayanagara territory.

In 1659, the Bijapur government sent Afzal Khan to subjugate Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Founder of Maratha Empire. He was killed at a truce negotiation meeting with Shivaji Maharaj, and his army was defeated at the Battle of Pratapgad.
