The Great Lady of Gresik or Nyai Gede Pinatih (Chinese: 施氏大娘仔俾那智) was a Muslim noblewoman from Palembang during the Majapahit era. She was the daughter of chieftain Xuan-Wei-Shi Shi Jin Qing of Palembang. After her father died, admiral Hajji Mahmud (admiral Zheng He) of Ming China decided to make her brother the new chieftain of Palembang, so she left Palembang and went to Gresik in east Java to preach her religion to the natives.
