Paduka Sri Sultan 'Abdu'l Ghafur Muhi ud-din Shah ibni al-Marhum Sultan 'Abdu'l-Kadir 'Ala' ud-din Shah is the 12th Sultan of Pahang who reigned from 1592 to 1614. Known as Raja Abdul Ghafur before his accession, he is the eldest son of the 10th Sultan of Pahang, Abdul Kadir Alauddin Shah by a junior wife. He was appointed as regent for his younger half-brother of a royal mother, Ahmad Shah II after the death of their father in 1590. He subsequently deposed his charge and assumed power two years later.[1]

In 1612, he fled to Jelai, Pattani following a rebellion led by his younger son, Raja Alauddin. He returned to Pahang in 1614 only to be poisoned along with his eldest son and heir at Kuala Pahang. He was buried in Chandong Cemetery, Pekan and styled Marhum Pahang after his death, having had issue one son and one daughter by his Royal wives, and ten other children by commoners.[1]

In popular culture

Raja Abdul Ghafur was played by Jesdaporn Pholdee in the 2008 Thai movie Queens of Langkasuka. He was depicted in the movie as the fiancé of Princess Ungu who came to defend Pattani during the reign of Ratu Hijau.
