Amjad Farooqi (1972September 26, 2004), known by the alias Amjad Hussain, was an Islamic militant. He was born in Punjab, Pakistan, and participated in the fighting against India in Kashmir.

Farooqi allegedly was involved in the murder of Daniel Pearl, as well as conspiring with Abu Faraj al-Libbi to kill General Pervez Musharraf during the assassination attempts in Rawalpindi on December 14 and December 25, 2003.

Farooqi might have been an associate of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.

A massive manhunt launched in May 2004 by Pakistani forces, ended with Amjad Farooqi's death in a two-hour gun battle at a house in southern Sindh province.
