Al-Aziz Jamal al-Din Yusuf (Arabic: العزيز جمال الدين أبو المحاسن يوسف بن برسباي) was the son of Barsbay, and a Mamluk sultan of Egypt from 7 June to 9 September 1438.

Biography

Following Sultan Barsbay's death in 1438, his fifteen-year-old son Yusuf inherited the throne. However, Jaqmaq who was his guardian orchestrated a scheme to remove him from power and seized the sultanate for himself. Yusuf who reigned for 94 days was imprisoned in Cairo then in Alexandria, where, according to Ibn Taghribirdi, he spent the rest of his life studying under quite pleasant circumstances.
