Abdur Rahmān Bābā (1653–1711) (Pashto: عبدالرحمان بابا), or Rahmān Bābā (Pashto: رحمان بابا), was a Pashtun poet from Peshawar in the Mughal Empire (modern-day Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,(KPK) Pakistan). He, along with his contemporary Khushal Khan Khattak, is considered one of the most popular poets among the Pashtuns in Pakistan and Afghanistan. His poetry expresses a peaceful mystical side of local culture which is becoming increasingly threatened by less tolerant interpretations of Islam.
