Sheikh Din Muhammad (Bengali: শেখ দীন মোহাম্মদ; 1749–1851) was an Indian traveller, surgeon, entrepreneur, and one of the most notable early non-European immigrants to the Western World. Due to his foreign origin, his name is often spelled in various ways. He introduced Indian cuisine and shampoo baths to Europe, where he offered therapeutic massage. He was also the first Indian to publish a book in English.
