Pengiran Anak Khamis[a] (died 1986) was a Bruneian nobleman and politician who formerly held several high-ranking positions which included being a member of the Privy Council, and the Brunei Islamic Religious Council. He is the non-gahara (pure royal lineage) son of Sultan Hashim Jalilul Alam Aqamaddin, therefore does not carry the title Prince (Pengiran Muda).[2]

Biography

Pengiran Anak Khamis was married to Pengiran Khadija and was the half-brother of Sultan Muhammad Jamalul Alam II, as he was not the son of his father's recognised queen consort (Raja Isteri), Pengiran Siti Fatimah. Together they have a daughter named Pengiran Anak Hajah Besar.[3] On 8 September 1963, he experienced the loss of his granddaughter, Dayangku Normala, at her home in Kampong Sungai Kianggeh. In her honour, flags across the nation were flown at half-mast the following day as a sign of condolence.[4]

Within a 1960 Colonial Office List, Pengiran Anak Khamis was first noted to be a member of the Privy Council to Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III.[5][6] On 10 April 1967, he was among the Bruneian hajj pilgrims to arrive at Jeddah, via Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.[7] He would assume royal duties during ceremonial and national events after becoming a member of Cheteria, and later a Wazir in 1971.[8]
