Mirza Abolghasem Ghaem Magham Farahani (Persian: میرزا ابوالقاسم قائم‌مقام فراهانی‎) or Mirza Abu'l-Qasim Farahani Qá'im Maqam (1779 – June 28, 1835, Negarestan Garden, Tehran) was an Iranian Prime Minister briefly from 1834 to 1835.
Farahani was one of the well-known politicians in the Qajar Dynasty, as the Prime Minister of two Persian Shahs’ government
He was born in Arak, Iran. His father, Mirza Isa Ghaem Magham Farahani, had served the Qajar family for more than 20 years. Before serving as prime minister, he was chancellor of Mohammad Mirza's court. He was later betrayed and killed in 1835, at the instigation of Hajj Mirza Aghasi, who would become Ghaem Magham's successor. His books include Monsha'at.

Mirza Abolghasem Ghaem Magham Farahani was also renowned as a literary man and calligraphist, whose ability in writing prose revolutionized Persian literature
Mohammad Shah had promised his father Abbas Mirza to never spill Ghaem Magham;s blood, therefore he ordered his executioners to strangle him, therefore not breaking his promise! Probably, that was the time the term Pedarsookhteh entered the Persian literature.
