Abu Syahid Shah
Sultan Abu Syahid Shah ibni Almarhum Sultan Muhammad Shah (died 1446) whose real name was Raja Ibrahim, was the 4th Sultan of the Malacca Sultanate, Malaccan Sultanate from 1444 to 1446. Despite the fact that Malacca was a Islam, Muslim kingdom, Syahid Shah was a practising Hindu. He styled himself as Raja Sri Parameswara Deva Shah. Appointment of Raja Ibrahim as 4th Sultan of Malacca was unpopular because of his young age. His predecessor, Sultan Muhammad Shah of Malacca, Muhammad Shah had allegedly seen the Islamic prophet Muhammad in his dream and converted to Islam.
