He adores her, but does not seem to understand why she would want a life outside the palace. The Sultan is said to be beloved by his subjects, but sometimes becomes frustrated with his daughter.

Though he dearly loves Jasmine, he is initially frustrated due to her constant rejection of potential suitors and pushes her to choose a husband. He seems to be somewhat childish, as he is often seen playing with various toys. The Sultan is described in various media as being pompous but kind.
