The Sheikh–Wazed family (Bengali: শেখ–ওয়াজেদ পরিবার) is a prominent Bangladeshi political dynasty, which primarily consisted of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Sheikh Hasina and her descendants. Their political involvement has traditionally revolved around the Bangladesh Awami League.[1][2][3][4]
The Wazed surname came from M. A. Wazed. Sheikh Hasina (the daughter of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman) married M. A. Wazed in 1968 and adopted his surname.
