On 15 August 2019,following the accession of his adoptive father,Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah,as the Sultan of Pahang,Tengku Amir Nasser Ibrahim Shah was conferred the hereditary title Tengku Panglima Raja (تڠكوڤڠليماراج). As a result,his spouse bears the title Panglima Puteri. This title forms part of the traditional Malay nobility structure under the Peerage of Pahang. [6]
In accordance with Malay royal and noble customs,such titles serve as prefixes rather than suffixes,in contrast to the European style. As such,Tengku Panglima Raja precedes his name. This title is held for life,unless it is elevated or revoked at the discretion of the reigning Sultan of Pahang. [6]
In official functions or ceremonial contexts,he may be addressed simply as His Highness Tengku Panglima Raja,without the need to mention his full title and style. [note 2] [6]
As Tengku Panglima Raja,he also serves as Deputy President of the Pahang Council of Islamic Religion and Malay Customs (Malay :Majlis Ugama Islam dan Adat Resam Melayu Pahang,MUIP). [5] [7]
