Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah binti Almarhum Al-Mutawakkil Alallah Sultan Iskandar Al-Haj (Jawi: تونكو حجة عزيزة امينة ميمونة إسكندرية بنت المرحوم المتوكل على الله سلطان اسكندر الحج; born 5 August 1960) is the Raja Permaisuri Agong (Queen Consort) of Malaysia and the Tengku Ampuan of Pahang.

Tengku Ampuan is a title reserved for the consort of the current ruler or sultan, of noble birth, as enshrined in the Pahang State Constitution.
