Mohammed IV

Muhammad V (Muḥammad bin Muḥammad ) was mai (ruler) of the Kanem–Bornu Empire in the mid-to-late 15th century, ruling approximately 1467–1470. (Different king lists (girgams) and chronicles translated in the 19th–20th centuries variously give Muhammad a reign of zero years (Urvoy), three years (Nachtigal, Landeroin), or five years (Barth, Palmer).) As a result of this, and due to different calculations for other mais, various dates have been given for his reign, including 1467–1471 (Barth), 1467–1472 (Palmer), 1369–1372 (Landeroin), and 1399–1402 (Nachtigal). Stewart dated it to 1467–1472, Muhammad probably killed Umar. though few details of his reign are recorded.

Muhammad ruled for three or five years and was succeeded as mai by Ali Gaji. The site of Muhammad's death is variously recorded as "Breda", "Bérbéra", or the "country of the Berbers", terms that refer to the Sahara.
