Burhan Ali (Persian: برهان علی) or Sultan Burhaneddin (in Ottoman sources) was a self-declared Shah of Shirvan.
According to Walter Posch, that his father's cousin, Mirza Muhammad Shirvani, son of Ghazi Beg who was governor of Trabzon at the time, might have intermediated the visit.
He lost a battle with Gokche sultan Qajar, lala of Ismail Mirza, near Kolhan forest.
According to Walter Posch, Safavid chroniclers tended to downplay significance of Burhan Ali, seeing him merely a local rebel in contrast to more dangerous Alqas Mirza.
Abdullah crossed Kura river from Cavad, while Burhan Ali stationed himself in Buğurd valley, however he died possibly of illness suddenly.
