Dr. Sheikh Khalid bin Mohammed Al Qasimi was ruler of the Emirate of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates from 1965 to 1972.

He was installed by British Forces after the removal of the previous ruler Sheikh Saqr bin Sultan who was his cousin and brother-in-law. He was a participant of the first union talks of the United Arab Emirates Federation. On January 25, 1972, Khalid bin Mohammed Al Qasimi was assassinated by the previous ruler Sheikh Saqr in a bloody abortive coup. Saqr was quickly defeated by federal forces, and Khalid's brother has since ruled Sharjah.
