Shams al-Dīn Luʾluʾ al-Amīnī (died 3 February 1251) was one of the regents of Aleppo for the Ayyūbid ruler al-Nāṣir Yūsuf and later his chief advisor and the commander-in-chief of his armies.
In that year, he was one of two emirs appointed to the four-man regency council for the seven-year-old al-Nāṣir, the other being ʿIzz al-Dīn ʿUmar ibn Mujallī.
[4] The regency formally ended with her death in 1242, but, as the ruler was still a child, Shams al-Dīn was the de facto head of government in Aleppo.
The Egyptian siege that soon followed, led by Fakhr al-Dīn ibn al-Shaykh, was broken off at the insistence of the ʿAbbāsid caliph, al-Mustaʿṣim, and because of the impending Seventh Crusade.
[6] He urged al-Nāṣir to send an embassy to Karakorum to make formal submission to Mongke, Great Khan of the Mongols.
[14] The death of his "guiding spirit" and "chief advisor" was a major blow to al-Nāṣir, whose reign never again saw the succession of triumphs that had characterized it under Shams al-Dīn.
