Mirza Jalal-ud-din Miran Shah Beg (Persian: جلال الدین میران شاه بیگ, c. 1366 – 21 April 1408), commonly known as Miran Shah (Persian: میران شاه), was a son of the Central Asian conqueror Timur, founder of the Timurid Empire. In the Timurid genealogical tradition he carries the laqab Mu'izz al-Din and the kunyas Abu Muhammad and Abu al-Fath, together with the Mongol title kuragan ("royal son-in-law"), which reflects his marriage to Urun Sultan Khanika, a daughter of the Chinggisid khan Suyurghatmish. During his father's reign, Miran Shah was initially a powerful regional governor and prominent military commander, having aided Timur in his conquests as well as suppressing several revolts. However, after facing accusations of destructive and hedonistic behaviour, the prince was later deposed from these roles by the emperor. Following Timur's death in 1405, Miran Shah became embroiled in the ensuing war of succession, having thrown his support behind his son Khalil Sultan. He was later killed whilst battling against the Timurids' traditional rivals, the Qara Qoyunlu. Though never ruling in his own right, the line of Miran Shah played a prominent role in the history of the Timurid Empire. His grandson Abu Sa'id Mirza eventually came to rule the majority of Transoxiana in the latter half of the 15th century. Abu Sa'id's own grandson was Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire of India.
