Jalal al-Din Mohammad Tabrizi

Jalal al-Din Mohammad Tabrizi (Persian: جلال الدین محمد تبریزی), was an Iranian aristocrat, who served as the vizier of the Safavid king (shah) Ismail I (r. 1501–1524) from 1523 to 1524.

A native of Tabriz, Jalal al-Din Mohammad belonged to the Iranian Kujuji family, and was the son of Amir Zakariya, the first vizier of the Safavid Empire.[1][2] In 1523, Jalal al-Din Mohammad was appointed by Ismail as his vizier, but after Ismail's death in 1524, Jalal al-Din Mohammad was killed by a rebellious member of the Rumlu tribe, and was succeeded by Jafar Savaji.
