Mohammad Ali Shah Qajar

(Redirected from Mohammad Ali Shah)

Mohammad Ali Shah Qajar (Persian: محمدعلی شاه قاجار)‎ (1872 - 1925) was the shah of Iran from January 8 1907 to July 16 1909. He was against the constitution that was ratified during the reign of his father, Mozzafar-al-Din Shah. He dissolved the Assembly and was supported by Russia. However, he abdicated following a new constitutional revolution and he was remembered as a symbol of dictatorship.

He fled to Russia and his attempts to regain the throne did not result in success. His son and successor, Ahmad Shah Qajar was the last ruler in the Qajar dynasty.
