Manuchihr II was the 17th shah of Shirvan. Azerbaijani historian Sara Ashurbeyli associated him with Al-Adud,[1] a son of Fariburz I, who was mentioned by Masud ibn Namdar as an emir of Ganja.[2] He might have started this tenure when Malik Shah removed Fadlun ibn Fadl from power in 1086. According to Dickran Kouymjian, he became shah in 1094.[3]
His existence is only known from inscriptions and numismatic evidence.
