Salim Khan Shams al-Dinlu was an early 17th-century Safavid military leader and official of Turkoman origin. A member of the Shams al-Dinlu tribe, of which he was the leader formany years, he served as the governor (hakem) of Akhaltsikhe (Akhesqeh, also spelled as Akheshkheh), the provincial capital of Samtskhe (also known as Meskheti, Masq, or Meshkhia), from 1623 to 1627. In addition to this position, he also served as the governor of the Shams al-Dinlu tribal district in the Karabagh Province for several years. His son Ismail (Esma'il) succeeded him in 1629 as both the head of the tribe and the governor of the Shams al-Dinlu district.
