- Khvaja Qivam al-Din Nizam al-Mulk Khvafi was a Persian bureaucrat who served the Timurid Empire in the late 15th-century. His father was a provincial judge from Khwaf in the Khorasan region of eastern Iran. According to the contemporary historian Isfizari, Qivam was a descendant of Fasih Khwafi's great-grandfather Khvaja Majd, who ruled in Khvaf in the early 14th-century. In 1471/2, the Timurid ruler of Khorasan, Sultan Husayn Bayqara (r. 1469–1506), appointed Qivam al-Din as his vizier. Together with another vizier Khvaja Afzal al-Din Muhammad Kirmani (appointed in 1473/4), Qivam al-Din plotted to have the powerful bureaucrat Majd al-Din Muhammad Khvafi dismissed through a charge of embezzlement. Pressurized by these two highly competent bureaucrats, Sultan Husayn first had Majd al-Din jailed (as was the tradition), and then started an investigation into the charge. An error on the part of the accusers, resulted in the release of Majd al-Din and drop of the charge. In June 1498, Qivam al-Din was executed through a plot led by his former allies, Afzal al-Din and Ali-Shir Nava'i. (en)
