The royal couple has two sons and two daughters:
Mizan became the youngest ruler of a Malaysian federal state when he acceded the throne as the Sultan of Terengganu on 15 May 1998 following the death of his father, Sultan Mahmud.
Mizan was crowned as the 17th Sultan of Terengganu on 4 March 1999.
Mizan was appointed Deputy Yang di-Pertuan Agong on 26 April 1999 after Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah, the Sultan of Selangor was elected the 11th Yang di-Pertuan Agong by the Conference of Rulers.
Following the illness and subsequently death of Salahuddin, Mizan served as Acting YDPA from 8 October to 12 December 2001.

He previously reigned as the thirteenth Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the constitutional monarch of Malaysia, from 2006 to 2011.
Mizan Zainal Abidin was born at Istana Al-Muktafi in Kuala Terengganu, the eldest son of Sultan Mahmud Al-Muktafi Billah Shah by his second wife, Fatimah @ Sharifah Nong Alsagoff binti Abdillah.
Sharifah's family is of Arab descent, from Sayid Omar Aljunied (her maternal great-grandfather), one of the modern pioneers of Singapore.

He went overseas to study at the Geelong Grammar School in Geelong, Australia.
On 3 November 2006, Mizan was elected by the Conference of Rulers to become the thirteenth YDPA, with his five-year term starting 13 December 2006.
Mizan's appointment was the fourth following a second rotation system amongst the nine Malay Rulers.

On 26 April 2007, Mizan was formally installed as Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
The state of Terengganu, where Barisan Nasional won two-thirds of the seats in the state parliament, was the last to appoint a Menteri Besar (Chief Minister) after the 2008 general elections.
In the formation of the new Terengganu state government, the federal government under Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi recommended Idris Jusoh as Menteri Besar, who received full support of 23 of the 24 Barisan Nasional state assemblymen elected.
However, on 22 March, the office of the Sultan of Terengganu announced the appointment of Kijal assemblyman Ahmad Said instead of Idris Jusoh, as was the Sultan's constitutional right.
The Prime Minister claimed that the appointment of Ahmad Said was unconstitutional as it went against the wishes of the assemblymen and the Prime Minister's office, all of whom had supported Idris Jusoh's candidacy for Menteri Besar.
On 26 March, Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin met at Istana Negara to resolve the impasse.
The Prime Minister accepted the King's appointment of Ahmad Said as Menteri Besar of Terengganu.
He also apologised to the King for the public spat over the appointment of the Menteri Besar, explaining that there was no intention to disparage or humiliate the royal household.
This apparent climbdown was due to the possibility that the royal household would be prepared to dissolve the state assembly if there had been a motion of no-confidence against Ahmad Said by the 23 UMNO state assemblymen.
