Irandokht (Template:Lang-fa 1916-1984 –) was a princess of Iran.

She was the first child of Badr al-Molouk and Ahmad Shah Qajar, the last ruling member of the Qajar dynasty.[2] She was princess of Persia before leaving the country with her parents when she was 10 years old, when her father was deposed in 1925.

While Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was in Switzerland for his education, he saw Irandokht and fell in love with her and told his father, Reza Shah about her. After Irandokht's arrival in Tehran, Reza Shah would not allow them to get married. Following his divorce from Fawzia of Egypt, Pahlavi, who was now Shah, seems to have again considered marrying Irandokht, who was by then also separated from her first husband, but was dissuaded by the fact that she had already had three children.[3]

Irandokht returned to Europe and married Abbas Faroughy. She had three grandchildren: Mariam, Darius and Cyrus.[4]
