Mutakkil-Nusku is King of Assyria briefly in 1133 BCE.

The son of Ashur-dan I, Mutakkil-Nusku usurped the throne from his brother, Ninurta-tukulti-Ashur, apparently only shortly after their father's death.

Mutakkil-Nusku died soon after this act of usurpation, leaving the throne to his son, Ashur-resh-ishi I.
