Muhammad Tajuddin ibni Omar Ali Saifuddien I (died 1807) was the sultan of Brunei from 1778 to 1804 and again from 1804 to 1807. He succeeded his father, Omar Ali Saifuddin I, to the throne in 1778, and served until 1804 before abdicating in favour of his son, Muhammad Jamalul Alam I. However, after his son died later that year, Tajuddin regained the throne and served until his death in 1807. Sultan Muhammad Tajuddin was a just and wise ruler who governed Brunei based on Islamic principles. During his reign, he focused on trade, particularly with Java, Macao, and Manila, promoting goods like camphor and pepper, while strengthening relations with Spain through envoys to Manila. He also dispatched envoys to China to advertise Brunei's products. Tajuddin was deeply interested in Brunei's history, especially the genealogy of his royal ancestors, leading him to commission Pehin Khatib Haji Abdul Latif to compile the Salasilah Raja-Raja Brunei (Genealogy of the Sultans of Brunei) manuscript. Additionally, he ordered the construction of a waqaf house in Mecca to assist Bruneian pilgrims.
