Fateh Shah Miri, or simply Fateh Shah was the 13th Sultan of the Shah Mir dynasty of Kashmir Sultanate. Fateh took the throne of Kashmir in 1486 CE. Muhammad Shah regained the throne in 1493 but Fateh soon retook it in 1505 after defeating Muhammad Shah in a battle near Kupwara. Fateh Shah reconstructed the towns of Pulwama and Anantnag. In 1514, he lost his throne again to Muhammad Shah but retook after just a year.[1] Fateh Shah ruled for a total of 18 years from 1486 to 1517. He died in 1517 with the throne being passed over to Muhammad Shah again.
