Fakr al-Din Shaddad ibn Mahmud was the Kurdish Shaddadid emir of Ani from sometime after 1131 until 1155.

Fakr al-Din Shaddad b. Mahmud spent most of his reign in attempts to fend off the resurgent

Ayyubid state in Syria. He spent his last years, living near Ani, but without entertaining power. His successor was his brother, Fadl V.[1]
