==Background==
His Highness was the son of [[Pengiran Muda Besar Abdullah]], the son of Sultan [[Abdul Jalilul Akbar]] and [[Pengiran Anak Puteri Besar]], the daughter of Sultan [[Abdul Hakkul Mubin]].

==Accession to the Throne==
Sultan Nasruddin's father, [[Pengiran Muda Besar Abdullah]], was the eldest son of Sultan [[Abdul Jalilul Akbar]].<ref name="Umar">{{Cite book|author=Umar, Jamil|year=2008 |title=Dato Godam |edition=fourth |location=Bandar Seri Begawan |publisher=Pusat Sejarah Brunei |page=4 |isbn=99917-34-37-6}}</ref> Being the first son, [[Pengiran Muda Besar Abdullah]] was expected to succeed. However, he did not have the opportunity to rule Brunei. Instead, his younger brother, Sultan [[Abdul Jalilul Jabbar]] succeeded their father in 1659. When Sultan [[Muhyiddin]] died in 1690, his heir was only 11 years old at that time.<ref name="Umar">{{Cite book|author=Umar, Jamil|year=2008 |title=Dato Godam |edition=fourth |location=Bandar Seri Begawan |publisher=Pusat Sejarah Brunei |page=4 |isbn=99917-34-37-6}}</ref> As [[Nasruddin]]'s father was the first son of Sultan [[Abdul Jalilul Akbar]], [[Nasruddin]] was installed as the 15th Sultan of Brunei.

==Reign==
Sultan Nassaruddin was a competent and wise ruler. It was during his rule a prince from [[Pagaruyung]], Raja Umar or [[Dato Godam]] visited Brunei. [[Dato Godam]] was greatly favored by the monarch due to his intelligence and experience in administration. As a result, with his expertise [[Dato Godam]] was recruited by the court to act as an advisor to the Sultan. According to oral traditions, [[Dato Godam]] was adored by Sultan Nassaruddin. This was because he was very impressed with [[Dato Godam]]'s sincerity, capability, and guidance.<ref> {{Cite book|author=Umar, Jamil|year=2008 |title=Dato Godam |edition=fourth |location=Bandar Seri Begawan |publisher=Pusat Sejarah Brunei |page=6 |isbn=99917-34-37-6}}</ref>

When [[Dato Godam]]'s father, [[Datu Bendahara Harun]] of Minangkabau, [[Pagaruyung]], sent envoys to trace him and finally discovered him in Brunei, [[Dato Godam]] was ordered to return to his homeland. When the envoys received an audience with Sultan Nassaruddin at [[Lapau]] explaining that [[Dato Godam]] had to return in order to succeed his father, the Sultan was reluctant. Finally, the Sultan agreed to permit [[Dato Godam]] and his eldest son [[Manteri Uban]] or Abdul Rahman to return. Nevertheless, [[Dato Godam]]'s second son, [[Manteri Puteh]] or Dato Said stayed. 

When [[Dato Godam]] was about to depart, Sultan Nassaruddin promised him that he and the next rulers of Brunei would give rewards and privileges to the descendants of [[Dato Godam]].<ref> {{Cite book|author=Umar, Jamil|year=2008 |title=Dato Godam |edition=fourth |location=Bandar Seri Begawan |publisher=Pusat Sejarah Brunei |page=8 |isbn=99917-34-37-6}}</ref> It was from here that some of the descendants of [[Dato Godam]] were given the 'Manteri' title by the next [[Sultan of Brunei]].

==Death==
His Highness died in 1710. He was buried at [[Makam Diraja Kianggeh]].<ref name="Sejarah Sultan-Sultan Brunei">{{cite web|url=http://www.hmjubliemas.gov.bn/Documents/pdf/Buku%20Sejarah%20Sultan-Sultan%20Brunei.pdf|format=PDF|title=Sejarah Sultan-Sultan Brunei|website=Hmjubliemas.gov.bn|accessdate=3 February 2018}}</ref> After his death, he was known as 'Marhum Di [[Kianggeh]]'. He was succeeded by his cousin Sultan [[Hussin Kamaluddin]].
