Jalaluddin Fateh Shah (reigned: 1481-1487) was the last ruler of later Ilyas dynasty of Bengal. He was the brother and successor of Sultan Shamsuddin Yusuf Shah.
No reference of military expedition lead by Fateh Shah is found. But from the numismatic evidence it can be presumed that his kingdom extended to Sylhet in the east and to the river Damodar in the southwest.[1] During his reign, the Habshis took important and influential positions in his court. Fateh Shah took some measures to take back control. But a conspiracy rose against him and later he was assassinated by the commander of the Habshi palace-guards, Shahzada, in 1487.
By his death, the rule of Ilyas dynasty came to an end.
