Mohammad Khodabanda (also spelled Khodabandeh; Persian: محمد خدابنده, born 1532; died 1595 or 1596) was the fourth Safavid shah of Iran from 1578 until his overthrow in 1587 by his son Abbas I. Khodabanda had succeeded his brother, Ismail II. Khodabanda was the son of Shah Tahmasp I by a mother from the Turcoman Mawsillu clan of the Aq Qoyunlu confederation, Sultanum Begum Mawsillu, and a grandson of Ismail I, founder of the Safavid dynasty. After the death of his father in 1576, Khodabanda was passed over in favour of his younger brother Ismail II. Khodabanda had an eye affliction that rendered him nearly blind, and so in accordance with Persian royal culture he could not contend for the throne. However, following Ismail II's short and bloody reign Khodabanda emerged as the only heir and became Shah in 1578 with the backing of the Qizilbash tribes.
