Arslanghali (Arıslan) khan (?-1627) was a khan of Qasim Khanate in 1614-1624, a son of Ghali khan and a grandson of Kuchum. In the time of Troubles he with his father struggled against False Tsars. Supporting Mikhail Romanov, he became a khan in the vassal Qasim Khanate, but his rule was limited and rather formal: only the Muslims and Kasimov population obeyed him.
