Panah Chodar oghlu Huseyn (Azerbaijani: Pənah Çodar oğlu Hüseyn, born 28 October 1957), also known as Panah Huseynli was the 1st Secretary of State and 5th Prime Minister of Azerbaijan.[1]

With the arrival of Azerbaijan Popular Front in power in May 1992, Panah Huseyn was appointed the Secretary of State of Azerbaijan Republic. In early 1993, he became the Prime Minister of Azerbaijan but was removed in June 1993 following demands from the rebelling general Suret Huseynov (unrelated to Panah Huseynov) to sack Huseynov and dissolve the Cabinet of Ministers.[2] He was then replaced by Suret Huseynov himself after Heydar Aliyev came to power in June 1993.[1]
