Shah Rostam Abbasi (Persian: شاه رستم عباسي), also known as Malek Rostam, was the Khorshidi hakem (governor) of Khorramabad and Lorestan.[1] He was the first Khorshidi ruler to acknowledge Safavid suzerainty, and was confirmed as a governor by Shah Ismail I (r. 1501–1524) in 1508.[2] This part of Khorshidi history is obscure; the next known Khorshidi governor was Shah Rostam's son Mir Ughur ibn Shah Rostam, attested in 1540.[3][4]
