Family Tree Of Kedah Monarchs
Genealogies of Kedah Rulers can be found in two traditional Malay texts, the first one being ''Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa'', a chronicle written in the late 16th century, and the other is ''Al-Tarikh Salasilah Kedah'' ('genealogies of Kedah'), a royal-sanctioned history published in 1928. The records however do not provide consistent genealogies for the early Rulers of Kedah. According to the ''Hikayat'', Kedah's first Ruler was Merong Mahawangsa. In the ''Salasilah'', it is stated that the first Kedah Ruler was Derbar Raja I who originated from Persia in the 9th century CE. Nevertheless, the ''Hikayat'' and ''Salasilah'' do share some similarities, the most important is that both texts state that the first converted Ruler to Islam took the name Sultan Muzaffar Shah, although the original name of the Ruler is different. ''Hikayat'' mentions that Raja Phra Ong Mahawangsa was the first to convert to Islam, while in the ''Salasilah'', it is stated it was Derbar Raja II. The following fam ...

The work is thought to have been written in the late 10-11th century and translated in the 19th century.
