Sultan Muhammad (Persian: سلطان محمد) was a member of the Kasranid branch of Shirvanshah dynasty, as well as the ancestor of Darbandid branch of the family.

His exact dates of birth and death are not known. He was a son of Kayqubad, and brother of Kavus I, and father of Ibrahim I of Shirvan[1] and Bahlul of Shirvan.

He was probably made governor of Derbent during the reign of his father Kayqubad I. According to a story by Aḥmad Ḡaffāri Qazvini, author of Tāriḵ-e jahānārā dedicated to Tahmasp I, during the reign of his cousin Hushang (or his uncle Kavus), he was disgraced and forced to take refuge and hide in the Shaki region with his sons, dying there.[1]
