Dhok Mughal Pathaan is a village in the Jhelum District of Punjab, Pakistan.
The history of this village dates back to around 300 years ago, when two brothers from Afghanistan migrated to Punjab. The name of the village reflects the background of the 2 brothers, who were of Pathaan origin and settled in an area of Mughal majority.
