Al-Malik al-Mansur Izz ad-Din Abu Sa'id Farrukhshah Dawud was the Kurdish Ayyubid Emir of Baalbek between 1179 and 1182 and Na'ib (Viceroy) of Damascus.
[citation needed] In 1178, Saladin decided that the administration of his brother Shams ad-Din Turan-Shah in Damascus was too lax, and its relations with the Zengid rulers of Aleppo rather too friendly.
Farrukhshah had already proved himself to be a good soldier and he appears to have met Saladin’s expectations as an administrator, as he remained viceroy of Damascus until his death in October 1182 (Jumada 1 578).
[3] Shortly after his appointment to Baalbek, Farrukh Shah won a victory near the fortress of Belfort against Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, killing Humphrey II of Toron.
[4] Farrukh Shah died in September 1182 (Jumada I 578) leaving a young boy, al-Amjad Bahramshah, as his successor.
