Ruknuddīn Bārbak Shāh (Bengali: রোকনউদ্দীন বারবক শাহ, Persian: رکن الدین باربک شاه; r. 1459–1474) was the son and successor of Sultan Nasiruddin Mahmud Shah. Initially appointed as the governor of Satgaon during the reign of his father, Barbak ascended the throne of the Bengal Sultanate in 1459. He was the first ruler to give prominent roles in the Sultanate's administration to the Abyssinian community.[3] Historian Aniruddha Ray credits Barbak Shah as the pioneer of urbanisation in Bengal.[4]
