'''Jamsheed Quli Qutb Shah''' (also [[transliterated]] in different ways) was the second ruler of the Sultanate of [[Golkonda]] under the [[Qutb Shahi dynasty]]. He ruled from 1543 to 1550.<ref name="sen2">{{Cite book |last=Sen |first=Sailendra |title=A Textbook of Medieval Indian History |publisher=Primus Books |year=2013 |isbn=978-9-38060-734-4 |pages=118}}</ref>

His father, [[Sultan Quli Qutb-ul-Mulk]], had established the dynasty and had become the first [[Muslim]] to rule over the entire [[Telugu people|Telugu]] region. In 1543, Jamsheed Quli Qutb Shah assassinated his father,<ref name="Michell">George Michell, Mark Zebrowski, ''Architecture and Art of the Deccan Sultanates'', (Cambridge University Press, 1999), 17.</ref> blinded his older brother, the heir to the throne, and forced his other brother, [[Ibrahim Quli Qutub Shah|Ibrahim Quli]], to flee to [[Vijayanagara|Vijayanagar]]. Following his father's death, he did not proclaim himself sultan, but forced local chiefs to accept his suzerainty, while gaining some forts from the [[Bidar Sultanate|Baridis]].<ref name="Michell" />

Little is known of Jamsheed's reign, but he is remembered as having been cruel. He died in 1550 from cancer.<ref>Masʻūd Ḥusain K̲h̲ān̲, ''Mohammad Quli Qutb Shah'', Volume 216, (Sahitya Akademi, 1996), 2.</ref>
