"I feel physically very good and I want to help the team and Hertha to be successful on a sporting level by using my experience," Khedira said in a statement.
Hertha, who sacked coach Bruno Labbadia and replaced him with Pal Dardai last week, have won only one of their last nine league games and have lost their last three in a row.
Investor Lars Windhorst has pumped more than €200 million into the club in the past year but the team are currently in 15th place, level with Arminia Bielefeld who are 16th in the relegation playoff spot.
