Tâdj ol-Molouk (Persian: تاج‌الملوک; 17 March 1896 – 10 March 1982) was Queen of Iran and second wife of Reza Shah, the founder of the Pahlavi dynasty and Shah of Iran from 1925 to 1941. The title she was given after becoming queen means "Crown of the Kings" in the Persian language. She was the first queen in Iran after the Muslim conquest in the seventh century to have participated in public royal representation, and she played a major role in the kashf-e hijab (ban of the veil) in 1936.
