Pengiran Muhammad Ali bin Pengiran Haji Muhammad Daud[1] (4 October 1916 – 16 June 2005), commonly known as Pengiran Ali, was a Bruneian nobleman, teacher, and politician. He served as the first Deputy Menteri Besar from 1962 to 1965 and was a member of the Legislative, Executive, and Privy Councils. Pengiran Ali played a pivotal role in Brunei's history, particularly during the 1950s and 1960s. He was the first of the "three M's" feared by the British government, alongside Pengiran Muhammad Yusuf and Marsal Maun.[2] He was also the father-in-law of Princess Amal Nasibah, daughter of Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III.[3]
