Her Royal Highness Pengiran Isteri Azrinaz Mazhar ( _ms. Duli Yang Teramat Mulia Pengiran Isteri Azrinaz Mazhar) (born September 23, 1979) is the Malaysian-born third wife of His Majesty Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei. She is the second child of Hakim Mazhar Mohd Johar and Fauziah Abdullah Mansoor.

Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei married former TV3 (Malaysia) newscaster Azrinaz Mazhar Hakim at a private ceremony attended by family members and close friends at the Brunei Palace in Brunei. The marriage was a heavily guarded secret and was only leaked very much later to the press by one of the guests. She became the second wife of the king (the first one still remains).

Azrinaz, who is fondly known as Naz, started work as a broadcast journalist with Malaysian television channel TV3 (Malaysia) in 1997. She won TV3’s "Most Promising Journalist" award in 2000 and received the MIIM Alumni Award in 2002.

She quit TV3 in May, saying that she wanted to "venture into other undertakings". Soon rumours were afloat that Azrinaz, 26, who used to appear on the Buletin Pagi, Berita Terkini and Buletin 1.30 news segments, had married the affable 58-year-old Sultan.

She was conferred the title HRH Pengiran Isteri Azrinaz Mazhar.

On June 1, 2006 at 12.43am, she gave birth to a prince, Prince 'Abdul Wakeel. The pregnancy itself was also kept secret. A 21-cannon salute was fired at the vicinity of the Istana Nurul Iman to celebrate the birth.

On January 28, 2008 at 4.21pm, she gave birth to a princess, Princess Ameerah Wardatul Bolkiah.
