'''Rinchan Shah''' ([[Kashmiri language|Kashmiri]]: رنژھن شاہ, [[Persian language|Persian]]: رِنچَن شَاہ) was the 1st [[Sultan]] of [[Kashmir]] from 1320 to 1323. Originally said to have been a Ladakhi Buddhist, he converted to Islam, becoming the first Muslim ruler of Kashmir. He was known as Sultan Sadr-ud-Din after his conversion to Islam.<ref>{{citation |last=Sufi |first=G. M.
