Yasir Shah took a five-for as Pakistan secured victory in the fourth Test on day four to level the series at 2-2.
The tourists wrapped up victory by 10 wickets shortly after tea having bowled England out for 253 in their second, leaving them just 40 to win.
Sami Aslam and Azhar Ali took their time to knock off the runs before the latter hit the winning runs for a six over Moeen Ali's head.
Resuming on 88-4 in the morning session, England got through the first 45 minutes of the session unscathed before Gary Ballance (17) was caught behind - Sohail Khan picking up a wicket in his first over of the day.
Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali looked in good touch though and the pair confidently went about wiping out the first innings deficit. The England wicketkeeper-batsmen made was unbeaten on 70 as England reached the interval on 194-6 at the Oval, still trailing by 20.
However, shortly after Bairstow had reached his 10th Test fifty, Moeen was fortunate to survive the closest of lbw reviews. Not enough of the ball was adjudged to be hitting the stumps to overturn the original 'not out' decision - much to bowler Mohammad Amir's frustration - but it was shown to be making significant contact.
The left-hander was gone soon after though, giving Pakistan a real lift as the session came to an end, as Yasir Shah pushed one through a bit quicker to find his outside edge - Sarfraz Ahmed taking a good catch stood up to the stumps.
Pakistan all but ensured victory with two wickets in two balls after lunch; Wahab Riaz - who was later removed fro the attack for running on the wicket - first reacted quickly to run out Chris Woakes before having Bairstow (81) caught at cover next ball.
Stuart Broad followed soon after, caught at slip off Yasir (5-71) as he tried to reverse sweep and after some stubborn resistance from Steven Finn (16no) and James Anderson (17), Iftikhar Ahmed had the latter lbw.
