Tengku Budriah Binti Almarhum Tengku Ismail (28 March 1925 – 28 November 2008) was the Raja Perempuan of Perlis, wife of Raja Syed Putra Jamalullail, and the third Raja Permaisuri Agong of Malaysia.

She was born in Kuala Krai, Kelantan on 28 March 1925. She was the princess of Almarhum Tengku Mek Haji Ismail Ibni HH Tuan Besar and Tengku Besar Zubaidah binti Almarhum Tengku Abdul Kadir, The Raja of Pattani in Southern Thailand. Her late father, Tengku Mek Haji Ismail was prince of HH Raja Tuan Besar Ibni Tuan Long Puteh, the third king of Pattani from Long Yunus dynasty of Kelantan while his mother was a princess of the last king of Pattani, HH Sultan Abdul Kadir Kamaruddin Syah Ibni Sultan Sulaiman Syarafuddin Syah.

Her family ruled Pattani in south Thailand until it was overthrown by King Chulalongkorn in his effort to consolidate his hold on the southern part of that country. Tengku Budriah's grandfather, the former Sultan Abdul Kadir Kamaruddin Ibni Sultan Sulaiman Sharafuddin (Tuan Long Bongsu) of Patani, withdrew to Kelantan. The ruling family of Kelantan was distantly related to that of Patani. Long Muhammad Ibni Raja Muda Long ismail, the grandson of Long Yunus (King of united Kelantan) was appointed by Siam to rule Pattani after he reconciled and give up his right on Kelantanese throne to his cousin, Long Senik Mulut Merah (Sultan Muhammad II of Kelantan).

Tengku Budriah was brought up in a family which had a simple way of life. She was noted for her gentleness and politeness. By her active involvement in uniformed organisations she developed herself into a personality with superior leadership traits.

She began her primary education in a Malay School when she was seven, then continued her education at Kuala Kerai English School. Tengku Budriah later spent her Lower Secondary Education at Anglo Chinese Girls School in Ipoh, Perak. As an active person in extra-curricular activities, she was appointed as committee member in Brownies and Girl Guides, and would later attend the 1950 Girl Guides Jamboree in Australia.
