Sulayman, sometimes referred to as Sulayman III (Arabic script: سليمان, Abecedario: Solimán) (d.
1590s),[1] was a Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Luzon in the 16th century and was a nephew of Rajah Ache of Luzon. He was the commander of the Tagalog forces in the battle of Manila of 1570 against Spanish forces.
His palace was within the walled and fortified city of Manila.[2][3][4] Sulayman – along with his uncle King Ache and Lakandula, who ruled the adjacent bayan of Tondo – was one of the three rulers who dealt with the Spanish in the battle of Manila of 1570.
The Spanish described him as the most aggressive one due to his youth relative to the other two rulers.[3][4] Sulayman's adoptive son, baptized Agustin de Legaspi upon conversion to Christianity, was proclaimed the sovereign ruler of Tondo
