Shah of Shirvan

Manuchihr II was the seventeenth shah of Shirvan. Azerbaijani historian Sara Ashurbeyli associated him with Al-Adud,[1] a son of Fariburz I, who was mentioned by Masud b. Namdar as ruling emir of Ganja.[2] He might have started this tenure when Malik Shah removed Fadlun ibn Fadl from power in 1086.
