Syedna Mohammed Badruddin (d. 1256 AH/1840 AD in Surat, India) was the 46th Da'i al-Mutlaq of the Dawoodi Bohra. He succeeded the 45th Da'i, Syedna Tayyeb Zainuddin, to the religious post. He was born in Bharuch in 1811. He was seven years old when his father Syedna Abde'Ali Saifuddin died. He was taken under the care of Syedna Mohammed Ezzuddin who brought him up and nurtured him for four years.
Syedna Mohammed Badruddin became Da'i al-Mutlaq in 1252 AH/1836 AD.[1] His period of da'wat was 1252–1256 AH/1836–1840 AD.[2]
Syedna Mohammed Badruddin married Amatullah Aaisaheba, daughter of Syedna Tayyeb Zainuddin. His ma'zoon was Syedi Hebatullah Jamaluddin, and mukasir was Abdul Qadir Najmuddin. Following his death, a succession dispute led to the separation of the Atba-e-Malak in Nagpur.
