Khudabadi (Sindhi: 𑊻𑋩𑋣𑋏𑋠𑋔𑋠𑋏𑋢, romanized: khudābādī), also known as Khudawadi (Sindhi: 𑊻𑋩𑋣𑋏𑋠𑋛𑋠𑋏𑋢, romanized: khudāvādī), is a Landa script used to write the Sindhi language, sometimes used by some Sindhi Hindus even in the present-day. The script originates from Khudabad, a city in Sindh, and is named after it. Khudabadi is one of the four scripts used for writing Sindhi, the others being Perso-Arabic, Khojki and Devanagari script. It was used by Sindhi Workies (traders and merchants) to record their information and rose to importance as the script began to be used to record information kept secret from other non-Sindhi groups.
