Muhammad ibn Musa ibn Tulun (Arabic: محمد بن موسى بن طولون) was a member of the Vassal Tulunid dynasty during Abbasid decline era and briefly governor of Tarsus.
He was appointed by his cousin, the Tulunid ruler Khumarawayh ibn Ahmad ibn Tulun, to replace Ahmad ibn Tughan al-Ujayfi as governor of Tarsus in early summer 892. On 18 August 892, however, he was deposed by an uprising of the populace of Tarsus, angry at a Tulunid attempt to imprison the local magnate Raghib and confiscate his property. Khumarawayh was forced to back down: Muhammad left the city, and Ahmad al-Ujayfi was restored as its governor.[1][2]
