Maulana Hasanuddin (also spelled Hasanuddin) was the second ruler of the Banten Sultanate, following the mysterious Sunan Gunungjati when he left to found Cirebon. Hasanudin reigned from c. 1552 to 1570.

Maulana Hasanuddin was a Azmatkhani Ba 'Alawi Sayyid and his lineage is recorded as follows: He is Hasanuddin bin Sunan Gunungjati, bin Abdullah, bin Ali, bin Jamal al-Din Husayn, bin Ahmad, bin Abdullah Azmatkhan, bin Abd al-Malik, bin Alawi Amm al-Faqih, bin Muhammad Sahib al-Mirbat, bin Ali Khali Qasam, bin Alawi al-Tsani, bin Muhammad Sahib al-Sawma'ah, bin Alawi al-Awwal, bin Ubaydullah, bin Ahmad al-Muhajir, bin Isa al-Rumi, bin Muhammad al-Naqib, bin Ali al-Uraidhi, bin Ja'far al-Sadiq, bin Muhammad al-Baqir, bin Ali Zayn al-Abidin, bin Husayn, bin Ali bin Abi Talib and Fatimah al-Zahra, the daughter of Muhammad.

He extended the domains of Banten to the pepper-producing region of Lampung, in South Sumatra. This area, which already had long-standing ties with West Java, facilitated Banten's rise to prominence as a pepper port.[1]
