He assumed the regency in 1619 when his father was carried off to Aceh as a prisoner. He appealed for help from the King of Siam, in an attempt to counter Acehnese hegemony. He moved his capital to Kota Naga in August 1626. He entered into diplomatic relations with the Dutch in Batavia. The Hukum Kanun Kedah and Undang-Undang Pelabuhan Kedah which was a law very similar to Undang-Undang Melaka was written during his reign.
