Abdul Manaf bin Hashim is a Malaysian political figure who represented the Pengkalan Baharu seat in the Perak State Legislative Assembly from 2013 until 2022.

Controversies

On 4 December 2020, Abdul Manaf introduced a confidence motion within the Perak State Legislative Assembly endorsing the then Menteri Besar of Perak, Ahmad Faizal Azumu, affiliated with Perikatan Nasional. The assembly speaker, Mohammad Zahir Abdul Khalid, sanctioned this motion. Subsequently, Ahmad Faizal lost the backing of both Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan factions in the legislative body.

Following this, on 23 December 2020, the newly appointed Menteri Besar, Saarani Mohamad, assigned Abdul Manaf the role of Special Adviser, citing his extensive experience as a representative of the people. Saarani refuted any claims that this appointment was a form of recompense for Ahmad Faizal’s displacement.
