In this Malay name, there is no surname or family name. The name Ibrahim is a patronymic, and the person should be referred to by their given name, Faishal.

Muhammad Faishal bin Ibrahim Khan Surattee[2] (Jawi: محمد فيصل إبراهيم; born 16 June 1968)[1] is a Singaporean politician who has been serving as Minister of State for Home Affairs and Minister of State for National Development concurrently since 2020. A member of the governing People's Action Party (PAP), he has been the Member of Parliament representing the Nee Soon Central division of Nee Soon GRC since 2011.

Before entering politics, Faishal was an associate professor at the National University of Singapore's Department of Real Estate.[3] He made his political debut in the 2006 general election as part of a six-member PAP team contesting in Marine Parade GRC and they won by an uncontested walkover. Faishal thus became a Member of Parliament representing the Kaki Bukit ward of Marine Parade GRC. During the 2011 general election onwards, he joined the PAP team contesting in Nee Soon GRC and they had won every general election since then. In 2012, he was appointed Parliamentary Secretary and had since risen through the ranks to become a Minister of State in 2020.[4][5]
