Shahzada Mirza Khair ud-din Muhammad Khizr Sultan Bahadur (1834 – 21 September 1857) was a son of Mughal emperor Bahadur Shah II and his consort Rahim Bakhsh Bai.

During the Indian Rebellion, he along with Mirza Mughal and Mirza Abu Bakht surrendered to Major Hodgson, who later shot all three near the Delhi Gate on 22 September 1857, at a spot since known as Khooni Darwaza, (literally The Gate of Blood).
