Ibrahim Nooraddeen
Appearance
Ibrahim Nooraddeen (Dhivehi: ސުލްޠާން އިބްރާހީމް ނުރައްދީން; died 1892) was the sultan of the Maldives, first in 1882 to 1886. After 4 years, 11 months and 29 days, Muhammad Mueenuddeen II took over the throne. Nooraddeen came to power for the second time in 1888, and was the sultan until he died in 1892.
C.W. Rosset who visited Maldives in 1885 during Sultan Ibrahim Nooraddeen's reign wrote that he was informed by the British in Ceylon that the Sultan neither could read nor write.[1] However historians claim that bodduns ( Advisors of the King ) often presented an imposter depending on the meeting to foreigners. The bodduns often exercised control over the king.
