Mohebb Ali Beg (fl. late 16th–early 17th centuries) was the laleh-ye gholaman (tutor of the gholams) and supervisor of the royal building projects in Safavid Iran.1

At the court in Isfahan, Mohebb Ali Beg functioned as an intermediary to create ties between the concubine queen Dilaram Khanum and the military sphere. The task of delivering the announcement of the death of Shah Abbas I from Mazandaran to Isfahan was performed by Mohebb Ali Beg.2

Mohebb Ali Beg was disgraced in 1629, following the enthronement of Shah Safi.3
