Abdullah ibn Shaykh al-Aydarus

Sayyid ʿAbdullāh bin Shaykh al-ʿAydarūs (Arabic: عبد الله بن شيج العيدروس‎, died 1609) was a Hadhrami religious leader who lived in the 16th century[1] and a descendant of Abu Bakr al-ʿAydarūs, a prominent saint who started the al-ʿAydarūs branch of the Bā ʿAlawiyyah clan.[2][3][4][5][6]

Abdullah was among the earliest Hadhrami Arab settlers in Aceh, and, like many of his kinsmen who came after, he served as the Naqib "religious leader" of Aceh.[7][8] Sultan Alauddin Mansur Syah of the Aceh Sultanate (reigned 1577–1585) persuaded ʿAbdullah to marry his daughter, and his son Zayn al-ʿAbidin was born out of this union.[9][10] In his later years, he led his life in a local village, Kampung Pasir Putih, where he died of old age.[11]

ʿAbdullāh's son Zayn al-ʿAbidin also became a religious leader and migrated to Johor, where he married Tun Kaishi, the daughter of Tun Jenal, the Bendahara of Sekudai[12] and took up the Malay name of "Tun Dagang" while staying with the Bendahara's family.[13]
