Sheykh Ibrahim II was the 40th shah of Shirvan.
Not much is known about his childhood. He fled to Nowshahr after his grandfather Gazi Beg's disastrous defeat. Having heard news that the Safavid ruler Ismail I was coming after him, he fled to Gilan, where he hid for two years. In 1502, a rebellion erupted in Shirvan and his nephew Sultan Mahmud was deposed. Local people invited Ibrahim to the throne of Shirvan same year.
In his 3rd year of rule, Shah Ismail I besieged Gulustan castle in order to restore Mahmud who fled to his court after deposition. After three months of siege, unexpectedly, a slave of Mahmud beheaded him at night and sent his head to Ibrahim. Sheykhshah, excited by the news, suddenly made a raid on besieging Safavid forces and forced them to flee. Despite victory, he accepted to be vassal of Ismail.[1] [2]
In 1507, Sheykhshah rebelled against the Safavids but was forced to make peace again in 1509. He visited Tabriz in 1518 as a guest of Ismail I. In response to his loyalty, Ismail offered an engagement of between his daughter and Prince Khalil. In 1523, Ismail married a daughter of Sheykhshah.[3]
