Mirwaiz Muhammad Yusuf Shah (19 February 1894 – 12 December 1968) was a religious leader and politician in the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir during the British Raj. He served as the Imam (head priest) of the Jama Masjid in Srinagar, a position that is also known as the "Mirwaiz of Kashmir" (head of Islam in Kashmir).[1] He relegated the majority of his political career to opposing the Jammu & Kashmir National Conference of Sheikh Abdullah, including siding with Pakistan during the First Kashmir War. He moved to Azad Kashmir and eventually served as the president of Azad Kashmir.
