Ebrahim Shah (Persian: ابراهیم‌شاه; c. 1725 – after June/July 1749) was the Afsharid shah of parts of Iran from 1748 to 1749. Born Mohammad-Ali c. 1725, he was the second son of Ebrahim Khan Afshar, the younger brother of the first Afsharid ruler Nader Shah (r. 1736–1747). In 1739, Mohammad-Ali adopted the name "Ebrahim Beg" following the death of his father during an expedition. In the 1740s, while serving as the sardar (military commander) of the Azerbaijan province, Ebrahim led a victorious campaign at Ardabil against Sam Mirza, a claimant to the Safavid throne.
