The House of Amirsoleimani (Persian: امیرسلیمانی), also known as the Amirsoleimani-Qajar (Persian: امیرسلیمانی قاجار), is a distinguished Iranian princely family with roots in the Qajar dynasty that ruled Iran from 1785 to 1925. The family descends from Mussa Khan Qajar Qovanlou, and the family name stems from Amir Soleiman Khan Qajar Qovanlou, a prominent Qajar noble, whose descendants played significant roles within the royal court and administration during the Qajar period.[1] Members of the Amirsoleimani family held various high-ranking positions, including key roles in the administration and court of Naser al-Din Shah, Mozaffar ad-Din Shah, Mohammad Ali Shah, and Ahmad Shah.[2]
