This study emphasizes the biography of Sultan Muhammad Shah II as the 12th Sultan of Terengganu. Sultan Muhammad Syah II assumed the leadership of Terengganu in November 1918 after the passing of his father, Al Marhum Sultan Zainal Abidin III, until May 1920. From an early age, Tengku Muhammad was nominated as Tengku Kecik Muda and was subsequently elected as Raja Muda or Yang Dipertuan Muda. When he was 30 years old, Your Highness was assigned as the 12th sultan of Terengganu. Having a good biography and personality convinces that the government that stands conducted will also be good. These refute the British claim that Sultan Muhammad Shah II was a frightened leader and did not have high supervision power. Therefore, to unravel the biography of Sultan Muhammad Syah II, the acquisition of data is focused on primary sources such as documents and manuscripts from the British Adviser of Terengganu, the Secretary of the Government of Terengganu, the Office of the Sultan of Istana Badariah, and the Office of the Chief Minister. In addition to the primary sources, secondary sources such as journals and books are being used to strengthen the research findings obtained from the National Archives of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, and Terengganu branches. In addition, data was also obtained from the Terengganu State Museum and Terengganu State Public Library. This source proves that Sultan Muhammad Shah II, in his youth, had a high attitude and went on to serve as an authoritarian and responsible leader.
