DAUGHTERS OF MURAD III

As we all know, Murad III was the sultan who had thirty daughters when he died, but in 1598 seventeen or eighteen daughters died due to plaque, so there were twelve or thirteen who were left. There were several daughters of Safiye Sultan, and much more daughters of concubines, who were married in mass ceremony in summer of 1613.

When Murad ascended the throne, Venetian ambassadors started to report about his family composition. Let’s now see reports from early reign of Murad III:

Report from Giacomo Soranzo from 1576 (page 205) (provided by Maria Pia Pedani)

Sultan Amorat III di questo nome, et XIII imperator de Turchi, è al presente di età di 33 anni. Ha una figliola di XII anni et dui figliuoli maschi, il primo, sultan Mehemet, di IX anni, et l’altro sultan Soleiman di VIII.

Report from Giovanni Correr from 1578 (page 239) (provided by Maria Pia Pedani)

Sarebbe, dicono, inclinato per natura a disordinar con le donne, perché si diletta grandemente della conversation loro; pure, con tanta commodità et quantità che n’ha, si tien per fermo che ’l sia contento della sola moglie, la qual se ben non le ha per ancora fatto chebin, che tanto vuol dire come indotata et sposata, ama grandemente, né mai dorme lontano da lei, et con essa ha tre figliuoli, una femina de XI anni et dui maschi, il primo di IX, et l’altro di V anni.

Report from Giacomo Soranzo from 1584 (page 268) (provided by Maria Pia Pedani)

Questo sultan Mehemet, solo et unico figliolo maschio di Sua Maestà con doi figliole femine, se ben ha havuto altri quattro figlioli maschi, che son morti, tutti di una istessa madre, è hora in età di XVI in XVII anni, et la prima figliola di XIIII dissegnata, come si crede, a Ibrain bassà, et [6] l’altra più picciola.

Report from Paolo Contarini from 1583; book Relazioni degli ambasciatori veneti al Senato (page 243):

Ha Sua Maesta un figliuolo unico maschio chiamato Sultan Memet, di eta d’ anni 18, e che l’ anno passato fu ritagliato, com’ e noto alla Serenita Vostra, di maggior vita e di piu bella statura del padre, di color olivastro, e negli occhi mostra esser crudele; s’ intende ch’ egli abbia animo grande, e che spesso biasma il padre, perche dipende dal consiglio delle done e non va in persona alla guerra. Ha pure Sua Maesta due figliuole, una di eta di quattordici anni, che, come ho detto, e destinata per moglie ad Ibraim bassa, e l’ altra e di anni dieci, ne per ancora e destinata ad alcuno, sebben si ragiona che la sultana madre abbia intenzionne di farla dar per moglie a Mamut aga, capigi bassi del serenissimo Signor, allievo e molto favorito di Sua Maesta.

--------------------------------------

As far as I understood from reports above:

Beside Mehmed, Safiye gave birth to four sons who died before 1584; one of them was named Süleyman who was year younger than Mehmed, thus being born in 1567. Also, Mahmud and Selim (who were born respectively in 1572 and 1579; see A Comparison of Seyyid Lokman’s Records of the Birth, Death and Wedding Dates of Members of Ottoman Dynasty (1566-1595) with the Records in Ottoman Chronicles by Pazan Ibrahim), were also sons of Safiye, according to birth dates.

Safiye for sure had at least two daughters; Ayşe, who was four years younger than her brother Mehmed, thus being born in 1570, and Fatma, who was four years younger than her elder sister and eight years younger than her brother, thus being born in 1574. Beside them, it seems that Safiye had one more daughter, who was older from Mehmed two to three years, thus being born in 1563-1564.

From later reign of Murad III we have also some informations:

Report from Lorenzo Bernardo in 1590 provided by Maria Pia Pedani (actually the report was made in 1586/87; because this bailo was there until 1587)

Fra tutti questi che a quella Porta potessero far bene e male a questo Senato è la sultana moglie, uno de principali mezi appresso il Gran Signore. Questa è di natione albanese, molto savia e prudente, si è mostrata da un tempo in qua molto bene affetta alle cose della Serenità Vostra, e però mi son trattenuto con lei con alcune galanterie di poco valore, perché non si mostra avida né ha causa di essere tale perché è ricchissima. Il suo favore non solo è da stimare al presente, ma molto più per l’avenire, in tempo che regnasse  il prencipe suo figliolo, appresso il quale è di molta autorità. È d’età d’anni 38 in 39, e sono anni 25 ch’hebbe commercio col Gran Signore col quale per anni 18 continui hebbe molti figlioli, de quali al presente ne vivono tre solamente, cioè Meemet prencipe, la figliola maritata in Ibraim bassà et una figliola che hora è da marito.

Safiye’s Household and Venetian Diplomacy; page 29 note 64

16 Aug. 1590  – the marriages of two daughters of the sultan has been arranged; the first is beautiful and will marry the beylerbeyi of Greece; the other is humpback, but not a monster, and she will marry Siyavuş paşa

Safiye’s Household and Venetian Diplomacy; page 29 (note 63 confirms spring 1591 as date)

In 1591 the rich Hümaşah Ayşe, the daughter of Mihrimah and Rüstem, proposed to pay the expenses of one hundred galleys for six months, if her son-in-law Çiğala-zâde Sinan paşa was made kapudanpaşa. At the same time a sister of prince Mehmed tried to obtain the same office for her brother-in-law Mehmed paşa.

Report from Matheo Zane from April 18, 1592, to the Doge and Senate (source: Calendar of State Papers and Manuscripts Relating to English Affairs (1893); page 23 – I will only provide first part of the letter)

The appointment of Sciavus as Gran Vizir was made against the intentions of the Sultan himself, who, in his own mind, had designed to make Sciavus second Vizir, and Sinan Gran Vizir. But Sinan was far away, and his Majesty was aware that there was pressing danger if he refused to satisfy the troops by the removal of Ferrad; he accordingly conferred the seals to Sciavus. This appointment is more popular among the people and the merchants than with the troops, who remember that the disorders of their payment took place in the time of Sciavus, though the head of the Beglierbey of Greece paid the penalty for all. It is thought that if the Sultan’s daughter, who is twenty-six years old, marries Sciavus he will keep his office, if not there is danger of his losing it…

Alphonse la Martine claims in his work History of Turkey (p. 108):

Ferhad-Pasha, grown old in the wars of Persia, was appointed grand vizier in the place of Sinan-Pasha, who returned for the third time into his sumptuous exile of Malghara. Ferhad had espoused the daughter of the Sultana Safiye. This princess governed under her son Mahomet III from the depths of the harem, still more absolutely than under Amurath.

Report from Girolamo Capello from 1600 (p. 416, provided by Maria Pia Pedani)

Rimane per ultimo Sciaus, di nazione ongaro, e per quello che viene detto nato nobilmente. Questo fu grandemente amato da sultan Selim; è persona di bell’aspetto, grave, di poche parole e risoluto, e nessuno vien formato di maggior intelligenza di lui, né più atto a regger tanto peso, essendo stato tre volte primo visir, se bene gl’attribuiscono nome di sfortunato, essendo nel tempo del suo governo successi incendii grandissimi et accidenti infausti, e sempre che si sente voce di mutazione di governo egli viene nominato per primo; ma si giudica che non potrà riuscire per non esser in grazia della regina, essendo che doppo la morte della prima sua moglie, non volse prendere un’altra sultana. Con tutto ciò non manca chi lo pone innanzi. E l’ultimo ordine che diede il Gran Signore a Sciaus, ch’egli non dovesse partir per la Mecca, facendolo ritornar in Costantinopoli mentre era in pronto per andarsene (se bene altri dicono che fosse sua invenzione per vedere come si muoveva il re) lo pose in gran speranza, che Sua Maestà si volesse servir di lui. Nell’amicizia di questo si conserva il medico Benvenisti ebreo, che per vedersi privo del donativo che Vostra Serenità gli faceva già molto tempo di 500 zecchini l’anno, quasi pretesi da lui per obligo di servizi prestati, si rende ora poco ben affetto, se bene lo dissimula. Ma si ha da lodar Dio che Vostra Serenità ora si trova libera dalla mano di tutte quest’arpie delle quali non avrà bisogno, piacendo a Sua Divina Maestà per gran pezzo, e quando anco Sciaus risorgesse, saranno ambedue sempre amicissimi di lei perché sono avarissimi, oltre che Sciaus si è sempre mostrato ben inclinato verso questo Serenissimo Dominio.

From this reports I was able to obtain, I understand next:

Safiye’s daughter Ayşe, who was from 1586 married to Ibrahim Pasha was sent with her husband to Egypt where she lived until end of reign of her father. But, there were at least two daughters of Safiye Sultan in the capital whose marriages occurred, even if their ceremonies was not reported by bailos.

In 1590, two daughters of Murad III (and Safiye) were promised respectively to governor of Rumelia (ambassadors often reffered them as beylerbeys of Greece) and Siyavuş Pasha. It seems that Sultana who was promised to governor of Rumelia was married to him latest in 1591, as her sister tried to obtain function of Kapudan Pasha for her husband (even though daughter of Rustem Pasha succeeded in her intention for obtaining that title to her son-in-law).  It also seems that her husband’s identity was Mehmed Pasha, more precisely Nişancı Kara Mehmed Pasha. Sometimes referred as Boyalı Mehmed Pasha. Mehmed Pasha died in June 1593.

I would suggest that this Sultana might be Fatma, as she would be 16 y.o., by the same age her sister Ayşe married Ibrahim Pasha. Also, as Mehmed Pasha died in June 1593, she could soon remarry. Also, there is a interesting quote in work DAMAD HALIL PASHA (d. 1603): THE LIFE AND CAREER OF A “MODERATE” OTTOMAN PASHA (pp. 1643-1644) which says that ‘’the death of Nişancı Mehmed Pasha, one of the dome viziers, on 21 June 1593 seems to have made it easier for Halil Pasha to become vizier’’.

On the other hand, there is a Sultana who was promised to Siyavuş Pasha after he was widowed after death of Fatma Sultan, sister of Murad III. From 1592  report of Matheo Zane, we find out that this Sultana is twenty-six years old and that marriage negotiations are still going on. By report from 1600, it is clear that this Sultana who was engaged to Siyavuş Pasha was Safiye’s daughter, because Girolamo Capello reported that Siyavuş Pasha refused to remarry to Murad III’s daughter and he eventually fell out of favour of Safiye Sultan. It seems that this daughter was the eldest daughter of Murad III, beside Ayşe Sultan and Fatma Sultan, who were married at the time.

Beside that

In Sicill-I Osmani cilt 1, page 26, says that daughter of Murad III named Mihrimah was the eldest daughter of her father when she died and that she married Mirahur Ahmed Pasha. Also in work Bu mülkün kadın sultanları by Sakaoğlu, Mihrimah is claimed as eldest daughter of Murad III, and that she was married to Mirahur Ahmed Pasha in 1604. But, if she was eldest daughter and was married in 1604 to Ahmed Pasha, she was 40 years old, which means she had another marriages during reign of her father and brother about whom we know nothing. I would go with her being the one trying to be married to her late aunt’s husband Siyavuş Pasha. If the description is right, and she was humpback, but not a monster, I would suggest she was maybe retired in her Palace or Topkapi Palace the most of her time because of health problems.

It seems that Murad III also had another daughter, Hümaşah, who was absolutely wronged by Alderson, he assigned her husbands of Şehzade Mehmed’s daughter Hümaşah Sultan and Şehzade Mehmed’s granddaughter Fatma Hanımsultan. Actually, thanks to Ragusan envoys, we know that she was wife of Nakkaş Hasan Pasha. According to Factions and Favourites at the Courts of Sultan Ahmed I, this marriage occurred between January and March 1605, but there are venetian reports which claim differently:

Resta quarlo Visir Assan Nacas, che in turco vuol dir pittore, per qualche gusto che ha di quella professione; e uomo di 54 anni, picciol di persona, nacque in Russia, d’ingegno sottile, poiche oltre il dipingere, sa ancora lavorare un orologio. Fu Silictar del re passato che il fece anco Visir, e gli die’in moglie una sua sorella – zia del presente Gran Signore; onde resta egli ancora parente della Maesta Sua.

Also, in Journal of Ottoman Studies cilt 11 from 1991 (p. 184) and Osmanlı Devletinin Saray Teşkilatı (1984; page 165) from Uzunçarşılı, there are claims of Ahmed I fulfilling his aunt Hümaşah Sultan’s reguest for some appropriate allocations from the imperial kitchen. Most interesting is 82 numarali muhimme defteri, where Hümaşah Sultan gave in 1617 some kethudas to her nephew Ahmed I, he even refers to her as hȃlem Hümaşah Sultan (derived hrom hala, which means aunt). I strongly suggest she being daughter of Safiye Sultan, as she was given name in honour of Şehzade Mehmed’s daughter who gifted her mother to her father. I also suggest she was the youngest of her siblings, being born around 1580. As she was child in 1580s, ambassadors probably didn’t have the chance to see her and she was confined to Topkapi. She received the highest salary for princess, beside four daughters of Kösem Sultan, as she was full-sister of Sultan. She also gifts during reign of Sultan Ibrahim, and on list of fourteen princesses which received gifts from envoys in 1655, in book ‘’Acta et diplomata Ragusina’’ she is reffered as Inasce sultana moglie di Hassan pascia.

Also, there were other daughters of Murad III, who were not daughters of Safiye Sultan.

In mass marriage ceremony in 1613, seven daughters of Murad III who resided in Old Palace were given to court officials. According to book Topçular Katibi Abdülkadir Efendi Tarihi  (p. 624), we are given identities of husbands of those Sultanas

Küçük Mirahur Mehmed Aga

Mirahur-I Evvel Muslu Aga

Bostancıbaşı Hasan Aga

Cığalazade Mehmed Bey

Kurşuncuzade Mustafa Pasha

Kefe Beylerbesi Mehmed Pasha

Kapucıbaşı Topal Mehmed Pasha

Also, author puts in footnotes that there was one daughter of Murad III who married in Shaban of 1022 H. (September 1613) governor of Rumelia Ahmed Pasha.

--------------------------------

* In work Bu mülkün kadın sultanları by Sakaoğlu, Fahri Sultan is claimed to be married to Çukadar Ahmed Pasha in 1604, who died in 1618. Year 1604 is incorrect, as she was married to him in 1613. Additionaly, in work Searching for Osman by Tezcan Baki, on page 328, it is claimed that daughter of Murad III who married governor of Rumelia Ahmed Pasha (later governor of Damascus; died 1618)  remarried to Çerkez Mehmed Ali Pasha, who was Grand Vizier of Murad IV. Actually, this Ahmed Pasha was Mirahur Ahmed Pasha, who was governor of Damascus from 1617 until 1618 (I checked on world statesmen site). It seems that Çukadar and Mirahur Ahmed Pasha are the same person, but it seems that when Murad III’s daughter Mihrimah Sultan died, pasha was remarried to Fahri Sultan. Additionally, her marriage to Grand Vizier would explain why she received the highest salary of 430 aspers in 1639. She was not daughter of Safiye Sultan, but she was wife of Grand Vizier of Murad III, thus being given the highest salary among full-sisters of sultans. According to Ulucay, Fahri Sultan remarried to Soffi Bayram Pasha, which is true, because she was recorded in 1639 as widow of his, and received gifts from Ragusan envoys as his widow. Interestingly, it seems that she remarried during reign of Sultan Ibrahim to certain Dilaver Pasha, who was vizier under Mehmed IV and died in 1656. In list of gifts, she was referred as Fahre sultan, moglie di Dilaver pascia in 1648, 1662, 1670 and 1676. She is recorded in Acta et diplomata Ragusina, which provides gifts for fourteen Sultanas in 1655 as Faslite sultana, moglie di Lauer bassa. There are also court records from 1662:

Also, in document dated from late 1662, which is about vakfiye of Fahri Sultan, she mentions at the end her sister Saime Sultan. Source:

11 numarali Istanbul Mahkemesi Defteri (H. 1073) pp. 303-304

On page 304, you will see Fahri Sultan refers to her as kız karındaşım Sâ’ime Sultân hazretlerini.

But, this Saime Sultan was also on list of gifts; in 1642 she was referred as wife of Topal Ahmed Pasha, and in 1648 she is referred as wife of Sarhoş Mehmed Pasha. In 1662 and 1670, she received gifts as widow, but in 1676 she was not mentioned, which means that she died in early 1670s.

One of the daughters of Murad III was Beyhan Sultan. There is a proof of her being daughter of Murad III:

It seems that Beyhan Sultan was recorded in 1648 as widow of Nideli Mustafa Pasha, who was actually Nigdeli Mustafa Pasha, who was killed in rebellion 1632. He was briefly Kapudan Pasha, governor of Egypt and defterdar. It seems that Beyhan Sultan was granted almost the highest salary (415 aspers) because of her husband’s positions during reign of Murad IV. She wasn’t of list of sultanas in 1655, so she died before that year.

I just don’t know if Nigdeli Mustafa Pasha is the same Mustafa Pasha that one of the daughters of Murad III married in 1613.

It seems that on list of gifts in 1642, there was daughter of Murad III named Abide Sultan who was wife of Muslu Pasha. Muslu Pasha was one of grooms in weddings of 1613.

There was also daughter of Murad III called Gevherhan Sultan, who died before 1639/1642, but was still alive in 1624, and was most probably wife of Bostancıbaşı Hasan Aga

Also, there was daughter of Murad III called Rukiye Sultan, but we know nothing about her except she was also daughter of Şemsiruhsar Hatun.

There was one more daughter of Murad III whose name we know, Hatice Sultan. She was married in 1613 to governor of Kefe Mehmed Pasha. She was still alive in 1639, when she was recorded in harem records as wife of late Mehmed Pasha-i Kefe. She was might remarried during reign of Sultan Ibrahim to some Magrip pascia, as she is recorded in 1648.

So, my final stating is as follows:

Mihrimah Sultan (1564 — before 1613); daughter with Safiye. Her marriages went unnoticed, she was might engaged in 1590 to Siyavuş Pasha, who later refused to remarry. She was married to Mirahur Ahmed Pasha in 1604. She died during reign of her nephew Ahmed I, and after her death her husband remarried to her sister Fahri Sultan.

Ayşe Sultan (1570 — 15 May 1605); daughter with Safiye, married firstly in 1586 to Ibrahim Pasha, married secondly in 1602 to Yemişci Hasan Pasha and lastly married in 1604 to Mahmud Pasha.

Fatma Sultan (1574 — 1620); daughter with Safiye. Might married firstly in 1590 to Nişancı Kara Mehmed Pasha, married in December 1593 to Halil Pasha, married in 1604 to Cafer Pasha (vizier, kapudan pasha (1606-1608), governor of Cyprus until his death in 1609). Öztuna claims she married two more times; in 1610 married kubbe vizier Hizir Pasha (d. 1610) and in 1611 to Murad Pasha.

Hümaşah Sultan (1580 — before 1662); daughter with Safiye. Married in late reign of Mehmed III or early reign of Ahmed I to Nakkaş Hasan Pasha. She was still alive in 1655, but died before 1662.

Fahri Sultan (1594? — 1579?); married in 1613 to Ahmed Pasha (once Mirahur), who was once married to her sister Mihrimah Sultan. After his death in 1618, she remarried Çerkez Mehmed Ali Pasha, who was Grand Vizier under Murad IV. After his death she remarried Soffu Bayram Pasha, and after his death she remained a widow for long time, receiving highest salaries among Ottoman princesses as once she was wife of Grand Vizier. During reign of Sultan Ibrahim lastly married to Dilaver Pasha. After his death, she received gifts as his widow in 1662, 1670 and 1676. She was omitted from gifts in late 1670s and she complained to Grand Vizier (Miović; p. 166). She was longest-lived child of Murad III.

Beyhan Sultan (?? — before 1655); married in 1613 to Kurucubasi Mustafa Pasha, remarried later to Nigdeli Mustafa Pasha.

Hatice Sultan (?? — after 1639); married in 1613 to governor of Kefe Mehmed Pasha.

Gevherhan Sultan (?? — after 1624); married to Bostancibasi Hasan Aga.

Saime Sultan (?? — before 1676); had at least three husbands during lifetime. Shie died in first half of 1670s.

Abide Sultan (?? — before 1648); married in 1613 to Muslu Aga. She died during reign of Sultan Ibrahim.

Rukiye Sultan (?? — ??); daughter of Şemsiruhsar Hatun, maybe one of the princesses married in 1613.

2 unknown daughters

I hope you like my analysis, and that I gave you interesting sources, reading and insights. I can't wait for your reaction and comments!

You really worked hard!! Thank you for sharing this with me, I really appreciate it. (I think you should be the one running this blog lmao)

Ottoman history is kind of a pain in the ass because Ottomanists do not speak to each other, apparently; one discovers something but that something gets ignored by everyone else. Also, Turkish historians tend to not use foreign sources, and it’s such a pity because there is so much information in ambassadorial reports.

I’m not sure Mihrimah was the eldest child of Murad III. Only Sicill-i Osmani says this (Sakaoğlu just cites it) and she was not given a “famous” husband, while Ayşe married Damad Ibrahim Pasha. Unless, as you said, she had some health problem so her marriage was delayed until Ahmed I finally “forced” her to get married like his other aunts. I’m sorry if I sound stupid but I don’t understand how you calculated her age 😭. Oh wait, did you just assume a year before Mehmed III? She undoubtedly existed, though.

About the marriages of Ahmed I’s aunts, I would add this from Ragusian diplomats:

30 June 1613: “...quel medesimo giorno che noi arivamo qui si sposso una delle sultane, zia del Gran Signore per suo Capicilar Chiehaia e l’altra si dice che la setimana prosima si sposara per il Beglerbei d’Urumelia stato prima Aga di Gianizari [Mirahur Ahmed Pascià — Mihrimah!!]; et cossi di mano in mano le altre cinque ...” 17 July 1613: “Questi giorni passati dopo l’arivo nostro si sono maritate tre soltane zie del Gran Signore figliole di Murat, et altre quatro sono sposate le quali fra quatro setimane si maritarano ancor loro, le maritate sono una per il Beglerbei di Romania, l’altra per il Bostangi Bascia gran nemico nostro..., la terza soltana vi e maritata per il Capicilar Ciechaia, ancor lui homo di cativo porto, et mal disposto verso le cose nostre..., le quatro soltane sposate vi sono una per il Pascia di Cairo l’altra per l’Aga di Gianizari la terza per il Ciuciuch Ibrachor Basci, e la quatra per Basc Capici Basci del Gran Signore, vi sono adesso quindeci soltane...”

These two dispatches seem to confirm the information you found in Topçular Katibi Abdülkadir Efendi Tarihi.

It would make sense for Safiye to be Ayşe, Fatma, Mihrimah and Hümaşah’s mother because their names carry meaning for Murad III (well, Ayşe and Fatma are for religious reasons) so I would venture they’re his eldest daughters.

About one of the husbands in the 1613 mass marriage, I have found — do not ask me where, I don’t remember — that Sülün Muslu Pasha was a vizier during the reign of Ahmed I. He could be Abide’s husband, as the Ragusians called him “Sulun Muslia”.

What about (in Öztuna):

MlHRBÂN SULTÂN: Med.Murâd III T. =Dâmâd Topal Mehmed Ağa, kapıcıbaşı, izd.21.2.1613.

Did you find anything about her? Uluçay, on the other hand, didn’t assign a husband to her but said that she was buried in the mausoleum of Murad III (the source is Hadikatü’l-Cevami). He also cited Uzunçarşılı’s Osmanlı Devletinin Saray Teşkilatı, page 162, but I couldn’t find anything about her in there. Or maybe it’s just Mihrimah but Hadikatü’l-Cevami called her Mihriban. According to Alderson, she was a consort instead.

Off topic but I can’t believe that Saime is an actual name because it’s so original. I spent hours trying to find an Ottoman name who sounded like Seime, when I first found it in Ragusian reports 😭

Anyway, you’re a really good historian!!

[venicepearl]

Rukiye Sabiha Sultan (after 1952 Sabiha Osmanoğlu; 19 March 1894 – 26 August 1971) was an Ottoman princess, the third and last daughter of Sultan Mehmed VI and his first wife Nazikeda Kadın. She was the first wife of Şehzade Ömer Faruk, son of Caliph Abdulmejid II and Şehsuvar Hanım.

[rhaenahanzades]

As you know, in 1655, fourteen sultanas received gifts from Ragusian envoys:

1. Fatma sultana moglie di Fasli passa

2. Ghiusciahato sultana moglie di Chienan passa

3. Behar sultana moglie di passa di Cairo

4. Caia sultana moglie di Melek passa

5. Ruckie sultana moglie di Telak Mustafa passa

6. Fatisce sultana moglie di Haidar passa

7. Aisce sultana stata moglie di Gascir passa

8. Fatma sultana moglie di Jusuf passa

9. Vsci sultana moglie di Ahmet passa

10. Faslite sultana moglie di Lauer passa

11. Fatige sultana moglie di Jusuf basci

12. Inasce sultana moglie di Hassan passa

13. Hatige sultana moglie di Jusuf Gesali

14. Safie sultana moglie di Haidar Sade, figlia di sultan Murat

______________

1. Fatma Sultan binti Ibrahim, wife of Fasli pasha

2. Gevherhan Sultan binti Ibrahim, wife of Sari Kenan Pasha

3. Beyhan Sultan binti İbrahim, wife of Haseki Mehmed Pasha

4. Kaya Sultan binti Murad IV, wife of Melek Ahmed Pasha

5. Rukiye Sultan binti Murad IV wife of Tellak Mustafa Pasha

6. ???

7. Ayşe Sultan binti Ahmed I, wife of Ibşir Pasha

8. Fatma Sultan binti Ahmed I, wife of Koca Yusuf Pasha

9. Ümmügülsüm Sultan binti Ahmed I, wife of Ahmed Pasha

10. Fahrihan Sultan binti Murad III, wife of Dilaver Pasha

11. Atike Sultan binti Ahmed I, wife of Doğancı Yusuf pasha

12. Hümaşah Sultan binti Murad III, wife of Nakkaş Hasan Pasha

13. Hatice Sultan binti Murad III(?), wife of Jusuf pasha

14. Safiye Sultan binti Murad IV, wife of Haydarzade Mehmed Pasha

I have problem to identify certain Fatisce sultana, wife of certain Haydar Pasha. It could be misspelled by Ayşe, Atike, even Hatice. And I don't know whose daughter it could be. Maybe Turhan's daughter, Atike Ayşe Sultan? I don't know...

I wanted to ask you what do you think of this, who the sultana and the pasha are, because I am not sure.

Hi! Well, I'm sorry that I can't be of much help with this. I also have no idea who this princess could be, though I've been curious about her too. From what I searched about it before, there was apparently not an influential Haydar Pasha in that period (by influential I mean a vizier or admiral), which makes me think this princess might've not been exactly Turhan's daughter, maybe just one of Ibrahim's with a random woman. But as we know, there were cases were less influential matches for daughters of Hasekis and/or Valides were made depending on the situation (aka Hanzade with Bayram Pasha, which was a very specific situation). Unfortunately, we know nothing about this Haydar Pasha to make much with it and much less of what might've been his role in politics of that time.

》 3. Mehmed'in Diğer Hasekileri 《

》 Güher Haseki 《

3. Mehmed'in dördüncü karısı olan Güher Haseki, Arnavut asıllıdır. 1577 yılında dünyaya gelmiştir. Sultan Mehmed ile evlilik yahut birliktelik tarihi belli değildir. Giacomo Surian 1603 tarihli raporunda kendisinin ( Güher Haseki'nin) Avlonya Beyi'nin yetiştirmesi olduğunu ve Safiye Sultan'ın yanında tahsil ve tarbiye gördüğünü yazmıştır. Zaten Safiye Sultan eğer Arnavutsa Güher Haseki'yi bu yüzden oğluyla başgöz etmiş ola bilir. Yine aynı rapora göre Abıleyal Haseki vefat ettikten sonra onun çocuklarını Güher Haseki himayesi altına altına büyütmüş. Güher Haseki aynı zamanda Rukiye Sultan'ın annesidir. Ayrıca kimliği belirsiz bir kız (Sultan) annesidir. Vefatı 1613'ten sonradır. Tam tarih ve defin yeri bilinmiyor.

》 Saliha Haseki 《

3. Mehmed'in beşinci karısı olan Haseki, 1577'de doğmuştur. Şehzade Osman'ın ve adı belirlenemeyen bir kızın ( Sultan'ın) annesidir. Vefatı 1613'ten sonradır.

》 Ayşe Haseki 《

III. Mehmed'in son karısı olan bu haseki, 1578'de doğmuştur. İsmi bilinmeyen bir kızın (Sultan'ın) annesidir diye not düşülmüş. Giacomo Surian'ın 1603 tarihli raporunda kendisinden farklı bahsediliyor. Direkt aktarıyorum:

" Sultan'ın (III. Mehmed) 10'dan fazla kızı var, bunların annelerinin çok güzel oldukları söyleniyor.Özellikle birinci ve sonuncu karısı afet bir güzelliğe sahiplermiş. Hatta söylenenlere göre Sultan'ın annesiyle son karısı arasında kavga çıktığında Sultan bu karısını savunmuş. Sultan'ın sevgili son karısından iki kızı ve bir de oğlu var. Daha önce dünyaya getirdiği oğulları bebekken ölmüş. Bu kadın da hediye olarak saraya girmiş. Aslen Akkermanlıdır ve erkek kardeşi de muhafız alayında hizmet ediyor."

Rapora göre Ayşe Haseki bir cariyeydi, saraya hediye edildi ve Sultan Mehmed'in en sevdiği karısı oldu. Safiye Sultan'a karşı bile diretebildi. Kendisi 1613'ten sonra vefat etmiştir, defin yeri bilinmiyor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3. Mehmed's Other Hasekis

》 Guher Haseki 《

Güher Haseki, the fourth wife of Mehmed III, is of Albanian origin.  He was born in 1577.  The date of marriage or union with Sultan Mehmed is unknown.  In his report of 1603, Giacomo Surian wrote that he (Güher Haseki) was the upbringing of the Lord of Vlonya and that he was educated and educated next to Safiye Sultan.  In any case, if Safiye Sultan is Albanian, it might be because of this reason that she had met Güher Haseki with her son.  Again, according to the same report, after Abileyal Haseki passed away, he raised his children under the auspices of Güher Haseki. Güher Haseki is also the mother of Rukiye Sultan. In additionshe is the mother of an unidentified girl (Sultan). He died after 1613.  The exact date and place of burial are unknown.

》 Saliha Haseki 《

Haseki, the fifth wife of Mehmed III, was born in 1577.  She is the mother of prince Osman and an unidentified girl (Sultan). He died after 1613.

》 Ayşe Haseki 《

III. Mehmed This haseki, the last wife of Mehmed, was born in 1578. It was noted that she was the mother of an unknown girl (Sultan). In Giacomo Surian's report of 1603 He is spoken of differently. I quote directly:

" The Sultan (Mehmed III) has more than 10 daughters, It is said that their mothers were very beautiful. Especially the first and last wife had a stunning beauty. According to rumors, even with the Sultan's mother when a fight broke out between his last wife, the Sultan defended this wife.  Sultan has two daughters and a son from his beloved last wife.  Their son, whom she had previously given birth to, died in infancy. This woman went to the palace as a gift. entered.  He is originally from Akkerman and his brother also serves in the guard regiment."

According to the report, Ayşe Haseki was a concubine, gifted to the palace and became Sultan Mehmed's favorite wife.  She was able to resist even against Safiye Sultan.  He died after 1613, burial place unknown.

Portrait of Murad IV's daughters / IV. Murad lányainak portréi

Kaya Esmehan

Kaya was Murad IV’s most famous child, who Evliya said was a lioness, a worthy successor to her father. Evliya knew Sultan Murad well and closely followed Kaya’s life so we can trust him when he talks about Kaya. Based on these, we can assume that Kaya was of a similar nature to her father and grandmother, Kösem.

Kaya was born in Istanbul in 1633, certainly as the daughter Haseki Ayşe Sultan. Her father celebrated her birth with days of celebrations. Kaya's name is particularly interesting, as the name means "stone," and in a more abstract sense, "hard." We don’t know why Murad chose such a name for a newborn baby girl, maybe she was born in good health and looked tough compared to Murad's other children? To offset his peculiar name, Murad gave a much more dynastic name to her also, Esmehan. We don't know much about her childhood.

Kaya first came to the forefront in the 1640s when she was old enough to be married off. The selection of the husband was the responsibility of the Sultan and the mother of the child. The Valide Sultan must have had a word also, but it was not her who decided. We know, for example, that even though Nurbanu wanted to marry one of her granddaughters to a certain man, Safiye (the girl’s mother) prevented this. That is why there was nothing strange about Ayşe choosing a husband for Esmehan Kaya herself. The husband candidate was not particularly politically significant anyway. He was one of Murad's former sword-bearer, to whom Murad himself had promised Kaya before he died. So Kaya herself grew up considering the sword-bearer as her future husband. Kösem, however, did not agree with the decision. She wanted one of her own trusted men to be Kaya’s husband, a pasha who was loyal to her and who she could permanently chain to herself with the marriage. This is how she chose Melek Ahmed Pasha, who was roughly the same age as she was.

So Ayşe and Kösem fought to each other, but it is not known in detail how the war between the two women took place. Some say Ayşe tried to seek the help of Sultan Ibrahim, who, however, wanted to take advantage of the situation and wanted Ayşe for himself. In the end, this did not happen, so Kösem and her chosen one, Melek Ahmed Pasha won. The wedding took place in 1644, however, it wasn't in Kaya's mind to accept the pasha. On the wedding night, she wounded the man with a dagger and forbade him to touch her. Melek Ahmed did not force the matter and accepted Kaya's will. Some say Kösem eventually forced them to consummate the marriage, others said for a while Kösem also accepted Kaya’s decision.

Kaya and Kösem were quite close to each other, she was Kösem's favorite grandchild, and this seriously affected her relationship with Sultan Ibrahim I, who followed her father on the throne and who was in a bad relationship with both Murad IV and Kösem. The new sultan made Kaya's life hell, for example in the late 1640s she was forced to serve his new wife, who was a slave-origin consort. Several contemporary sources report that Ibrahim, since Murad's death, has been constantly disturbing Kaya, and for this reason, Kösem tried to keep the girl away from Ibrahim. Based on this, we can assume that Kaya was relieved when Ibrahim was dethroned and executed. Soon, however, her life turned upside down.

In 1651, seven years after her marriage, Kösem finally forced Kaya to consummate the marriage with her husband. According to Evliya, Kaya did not want it because a future teller predicted that she would die during the birth of her daughter. Kösem wanted Kaya to forget this nonsense, that's why she forced her. Others said there was no compulsion, Kaya herself decided so. Finally, Kaya soon became pregnant and gave birth to her baby daughter, Afife Fatma. Kaya survived the birth, but Kösem could no longer see it, since in September 1651 her rival, the new Sultan Mehmed IV's mother killed her.

Due to her death, Kösem's huge charity did not stop, for Kaya took her place in many ways. She presumably learned charity from her grandmother, as she had a prominent number and size of foundations and regularly helped those in need with huge sums of money. Just as she was a worthy daughter of Murad, she was a worthy grandchild of Kösem. As the common charity also suggests, Kösem was close to Kaya and knew her quite well. Maybe that’s certainly why she chose Melek Ahmed as her husband. Besides her own political ambitions, she might have guessed that Melek Ahmed could be a good husband for Kaya. Eventually, her suspicion came true because a real love came out from the marriage of Melek Ahmed and Kaya. Melek Ahmed regularly piled up gifts for his sweetheart, and Kaya helped the pasha move forward in political fields. Kaya once set off while was heavily pregnant to warn her husband that someone wanted to assassinate him.

In such a loving and caring relationship, it’s no surprise that after her first successful birth, Kaya soon became pregnant again. Perhaps after the success of her first birth, she could have calmed down and thought the prophecy was wrong. However, this birth was no longer as easy as the birth of Afife. She was seven months pregnant when labor began and she gave birth to a premature baby. The child was named Ahmed but he died on the day he was born. Kaya survived childbirth and soon recovered.

Then in 1658 Kaya became pregnant again. This time, during her pregnancy, she had a strange dream that suggested that she would soon join to her grandfather, Ahmed I, and his brother, Mustafa I. Kaya’s labor soon began, and she gave birth to a girl after a long, difficult labor, however, the placenta did not leave her uterus after the child was born. Because of this, the midwives tried every existing method to remove the placenta from the sultana’s body. At first, they gave her herbs to drink, then some herbs were put into her uterus with water, to clean the placenta away. But when none of it worked, the midwives tried to pull out the placenta with their bare hands. Eventually, after four-day torture, Kaya died in her palace and her little daughter soon followed her.

Kaya was buried in the mausoleum of Ibrahim I at Mehmed IV's command. The place of the burial suggests that Mehmed and Kaya were not close to each other at all, since if Mehmed had been the least interested in the matter, he would certainly not bury Kaya next to Ibrahim, with whom they knowingly hated each other. It cannot be ruled out that after the assassination of Kösem, Kaya violated the Sultan or his mother in some way and that was the background of their relationship. During the funeral, Melek Ahmed Pasha fell to Kaya's coffin, crying loud and was unable to calm down. This kind of emotional outburst was very unusual for a guy and very not okay with the traditions. Melek Ahmed mourned his beloved wife for the rest of his life, even if he was forced to remarry over time.

As Kaya followed Kösem in charity, so did her daughter, Afife followed her. With the death of her mother, Afife took over the supervision of all her foundations as soon as she became old enough to do so. Like her mother and grandmother, she was a really charitable and generous person. She was married to a pasha named Suleiman, who already had two sons from his previous marriage. They had no children together with Afife. Afife Fatma Hanimsultan died in 1727 and was buried in the Şehzade Mosque Complex.

Safiye

The identity of her mother and date of birth are unknown, all that is known is that she was born after 1633. Her name is interesting, since Safiye, although occurring among dynastic names, was not common. In addition, Safiye Sultan, Murad IV’s great-grandmother, was not very popular in the period. First of all, it would be nice to know who named the little princess. As the exact date of birth is not known, this is difficult to say. If she was born during any of Murad's campaigns, she would certainly be named by Kösem. The name may suggest that perhaps Murad or Kösem liked or revered the famous sultana. We know that Kösem often visited Safiye during the reign of Ahmed I, perhaps she also took Murad with her on these journeys, so he had the opportunity to establish some kind of relationship with his great-grandmother.

She was married off by her cousin Mehmed IV in 1659 to the blonde Abaza Hüseyin Pasha, who was a relative of the reigning Grand Vizier Köprülü Mehmed Pasha. We don’t know much about their marriage, however, the fact that they had four children may indicate that their relationship was balanced. One son Ebu-Bekr died as a child and another son Sultanzade Mehmed Remzi Pasha (1660-1719) became an influential statesman. Mehmed Remzi Pasha was married and the Safiye Sultanzadelers can be traced back to him. The Safiye Sultanzadelers have been present in Ottoman history for centuries, and are mentioned by many even in the twentieth century, and perhaps some of them still live among us today. Along with two sons, Safiye and Abaza Hüseyin Pasha also had a daughter, Rukiye (before 1680 - 1697), who reached adulthood and was married to Murmedoglu Gürci Mehmed Pasha in 1694, but we know no more about her, as she soon died.

Safiye died in 1680 when she gave birth to her last child a premature baby. Along with Safiye, her son Abdullah also died. She was buried in the mausoleum of her grandfather, Ahmed I, along with her son. Her husband survived her for eight years.

Rukiye

Rukiye was probably born in the last years of Murad IV's reign, perhaps in 1640. The identity of her mother is unknown. She was also married off by her cousin, Mehmed IV, to Şeytan Melek Divrikli Ibrahim Pasha in January 1663, with whom she had two children, Ayşe (? -1717) and Fatma (? -1727?). The date of birth of the girls is unknown, usually, they put it by the late 1670s, but it is more likely that they were born much earlier, shortly after the wedding of Rukiye and the pasha. We know a little more about Fatma's life than we know about Ayşe. Fatma's husband was Mısırlı Bıyıklı Mehmed Pasha, from whom a son was born, Mehmed Said.

Rukiye's husband died in 1685, but the widowed sultana probably married again soon. Although historians disagree on this, if she did remarry, Gürcü Mehmed Pasha was the chosen one. Similarly uncertain is the time of Rukiye's death, all we know is that it may have happened sometime between 1690 and 1703 and that she was buried in the Şehzade Mosque complex.

More daughters

Hanzade was born in 1631, but the identity of her mother is unknown. Her husband was Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha until the man's death in 1657. Their marriage remained childless and she did not remarry after widowhood. She died in 1675.

The identity and date of birth of Ayşe's mother are also unknown. Before 1655 he married Malatuk Süleyman Pasha but we don't know any more about her.

An anonymous sultana, who was born in 1627, married Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasha in 1640.

Another anonymous sultana married Ammarzade Mehmed Pasha before 1648, but we know nothing else about her.

In addition to the former girls, Murad had other daughters who died as children, such as Hafsa, of whom we know nothing, and Esmehan, who was born before 1633 and, according to some, died as an infant, before 1633. But since she was buried in the mausoleum of Mustafa I, it arises that she died after Mustafa's death in 1639. It wouldn't be logical to rebury her in Mustafa's tomb while all of Murad's other children are buried where they were originally buried. Some say Murad also had a daughter named Gevherhan, while others think she was Ibrahim's daughter, anyhow she died as a child.

Kaya Esmehan

Kaya volt IV. Murad leghíresebb gyermeke, aki Evliya szerint egy igazi oroszlán volt, méltó utódja apjának. Evliya jól ismerte Murad szultánt és alaposan nyomon követte Kaya életútját, így hihetünk neki, mikor Kayáról beszél. Ezek alapján azt sejthetjük, hogy Kaya hasonló természetű volt, mint apja és nagyanyja, Köszem.

Kaya 1633-ban született Isztambulban, minden bizonnyal Haszeki Ayşe szultána lányaként. Születését apja napokon át tartó mulatsággal ünnepelte meg. Kaya neve különösen érdekes, hiszen a név jelentése "kő", elvontabb értelemben pedig "kemény". Nem tudjuk, hogy Murad miért választott ilyen nevet egy újszülött kislánynak, talán többi gyermekéhez képest jó egészségben született és keménynek tűnt? Hogy különös nevét ellensúlyozza Murad egy sokkal dinasztikusabb nevet, az Esmehant is a Kaya mellé tette. Gyermekkoráról nem sokat tudunk.

Kaya először az 1640-es években került a figyelem középpontjába, mikor elég idős lett a kiházasításhoz.  A férj kiválasztása a mindenkori szultán és a gyermek édesanyjának feladata volt. A Valide szultánának minden bizonnyal szintén lehetett szava, ám nem ő döntött. Tudjuk például, hogy Nurbanu hiába szerette volna egyik unokáját egy bizonyos férfihoz adni feleségül, Safiye (a lány anyja) ezt megakadályozta. Épp ezért nem volt abban semmi furcsa, hogy Ayşe maga válasszon férjet Esmehan Kaya számára. A férjjelölt egyébként nem volt különösen jelentős politikai szempontból. Murad egyik korábbi fegyverhordozója volt, akinek még maga Murad ígérte oda Kayát, mielőtt meghalt volna. Kaya maga úgy nőtt fel tehát, hogy a fegyverhordozót tekintette jövendőbeli férjének. Köszem azonban nem értett egyet a döntéssel. Saját emberei közül akart valakit Kaya férjéül, egy olyan pasát, aki hűséges hozzá és akit végleg magához láncolhat a házassággal. Így esett a választása a nagyjából vele egy idős Melek Ahmed Pasára.

Ayşe és Köszem egymásnak feszültek tehát, de nem tudni részletekbe menően, hogyan zajlott a két nő közötti háború. Egyesek szerint Ayşe igyekezett Ibrahim szultán segítségét kérni, aki azonban ki akarta használni a helyzetet és magának akarta Ayşét. Végül ez nem történt meg, így győzött Köszem és a választottja Melek Ahmed Pasa. Az esküvőre 1644-ben került sor. Kayának esze ágában sem volt azonban elfogadni a pasát. A nászéjszakán egy tőrrel sebesítette meg a férfit és megtiltotta neki, hogy hozzáérjen. Melek Ahmed nem forszírozta a dolgot és elfogadta Kaya akaratát. Egyesek szerint Köszem végül erőszakkal rávette őket, hogy elhálják a nászt, mások szerint egy időre Köszem is elfogadta Kaya döntését.

Kaya és Köszem meglehetősen közel álltak egymáshoz, ő volt Köszem kedvenc unokája, ez pedig komolyan befolyásolta viszonyát az apja után trónrakerülő I. Ibrahimmal. Az új szultán pokollá tette Kaya életét, az 1640-es évek végén például arra kényszerítette, hogy feleségét szolgálja. Több korabeli forrás is beszámol arról, hogy Ibrahim, Murad halála óta folyamatosan kipécézte magának Kayát és emiatt Köszem igyekezett a lányt távol tartani Ibrahimtól. Ez alapján feltételezhetjük, hogy Kaya megkönnyebbült, mikor Ibrahimot trónfosztották és kivégezték. Hamarosan azonban élete fenekestül felfordult.

1651-ben, hét évvel házassága megköttetése után Köszem szultána végül kényszerítette Kayát, hogy elhálja a nászt férjével. Evliya szerint Kaya azért nem akarta elhálni a nászt a pasával, mert egy álomfejtő (vagy jövendő mondó) azt jósolta neki, hogy lánya születésébe fog belehalni. Köszem a kényszerítéssel azt akarta elérni, hogy Kaya elfelejtse ezt a nonszensz gondolatot. Mások szerint nem volt semmi kényszer, Kaya maga döntött így. Végül aztán Kaya hamarosan teherbe esett és világra hozta kislányát, Afife Fatmát. Kaya túlélte a szülést, Köszem azonban ezt már nem láthatta, hiszen 1651 szeptemberében vetélytársa, az új szultán IV. Mehmed anyja meggyilkoltatta.

Köszem halálával nem szűnt meg hatalmas jótékonykodása, Kaya ugyanis sok szempontból átvette a helyét. Feltehetőleg nagyanyjától tanulta a jótékonykodást, ugyanis kiemelt számú és méretű alapítványa volt és rendszeresen segítette a szükségben szenvedőket hatalmas összegekkel. Mint ahogy méltó lánya volt Muradnak, úgy méltó unokája Köszemnek. Mint a közös jótékonykodás is sugallja, Köszem meglehetősen jól ismerte unokáját, és minden bizonnyal épp emiatt választotta számára Melek Ahmedet férjül. Saját politikai ambíciói mellett úgy sejthette, Melek Ahmed jó férje lehet Kayának. Végül sejtelme beigazolódott, mert Melek Ahmed és Kaya között valódi szerelem és bajtársiasság szövődött. Melek Ahmed rendszeresen halmozta el ajándékokkal kedvesét, Kaya pedig minden módon segítette a pasa előremenetelét. Kaya egyszer mindenórás terhesen indult útnak, hogy figyelmeztesse férjét, hogy valaki az életére akar törni.

Egy ilyen szerelemre és bizalomra épülő kapcsolatban nem meglepő, hogy az első sikeres szülés után Kaya hamarosan újra várandós lett. Talán az első szülés sikere után megnyugodhatott és azt hihetette a prófécia téves volt. Ez a szülés azonban már korántsem volt olyan felhőtlen, mint Afife születése. Hét hónapos terhes volt, amikor beindult a szülés és egy koraszülött fiút hozott világra. A gyermeket Ahmednek nevezték el, ám még születése napján meghalt. Kaya túlélte a szülést és hamarosan felépült.

1658-ban aztán Kaya újra várandós lett. Ezúttal terhessége alatt különös álmot látott, mely azt sugallta hogy hamarosan csatlakozni fog nagyapjához I. Ahmedhez és annak öccséhez, I. Musztafához. Kaya szülése hamarosan beindult és hosszadalmas, nehéz szülés után egy kislánynak adott életet, azonban a méhlepény nem távozott a gyermek születését követően. Emiatt a bábák minden létező módszert megpróbáltak, hogy eltávolítsák a méhlepényt a szultána testéből. Eleinte gyógyfőzeteket itattak vele, aztán a gyógyfőzeteket a méhébe juttatták, de amikor ez sem járt eredménnyel puszta kezükkel próbálták kihúzni a méhlepényt. Végül négy napos tortúra után Kaya meghalt, kislánya pedig hamarosan követte őt.

Kayát IV. Mehmed parancsára I. Ibrahim mauzóleumába temették el. A temetés helye sugallja, hogy Mehmed és Kaya egyáltalán nem álltak egymáshoz közel, hiszen ha Mehmedet a legkevésbé is érdekelte volna a dolog, Kayát biztosan nem Ibrahim mellé temeti, akivel tudottan gyűlölték egymást. Nem zárható ki, hogy Köszem meggyilkolása után Kaya valamilyen módon megsértette a szultánt vagy annak édesanyját és ez állt viszonyuk hátterében. A temetés alatt Melek Ahmed Pasa a szokásokat megsértve zokogva borult Kaya koporsójára és képtelen volt megnyugodtni. Az ilyesfajta érezelmi kitörés nagyon nem volt szokás egy pasától. Melek Ahmed élete végéig gyászolta szeretett feleségét még akkor is ha idővel kényszerítették az újra nősülésre.

Ahogy Kaya Köszem örökébe lépett, úgy lépett lánya Afife Kaya örökébe. Anyja halálával ő vette át minden alapítványának felügyeletét, amint elég idős lett ehhez. Anyjához és nagyanyjához hasonlóan igazán jótékony személy volt. Egy Szulejmán nevű pasához adták feleségül, akinek már volt két fia előző házasságából, Afifével nem született közös gyermekük. Afife Fatma Hanimszultána 1727-ben halt meg és a Şehzade mecsetkomplexumban temették el.

Safiye

Safiye szultána édesanyjának kiléte és születési ideje nem ismert, annyit tudni, hogy 1633 után jött világra. Neve érdekes, hiszen a Safiye bár előfordult a dinasztikus nevek között, nem volt gyakori. Emellett Safiye szultána, Murad dédnagyanyja nem volt túl népszerű a korszakban. Először is jó lenne tudni, hogy ki nevezte el a kishercegnőt. Mivel pontos születési ideje nem ismert, ezt nehéz megmondani. Ha Murad valamelyik hadjárata alatt jött világra, minden bizonnyal Köszem nevezte el. Az elnevezés utalhat arra, hogy talán Murad vagy Köszem kedvelte és tisztelte a híres szultánát. Azt tudjuk, hogy Köszem gyakran látogatta Safiyét még I. Ahmed uralkodása alatt, talán ezen utakra Muradot is magával vitte, így annak lehetősége volt valamilyen viszonyt kialakítani dédnagyanyjával.

Unokatestvére, IV. Mehmed házasította ki 1659-ben a szőke Abaza Hüseyin Pasához, aki szegről végről a nagyvezír Köprülü Mehmed Pasa rokona volt. Házasságukról nem sokat tudunk, azonban az, hogy négy gyermekük is született arra utalhat, hogy kiegyensúlyozott volt a kapcsolatuk. Egyik fiuk Ebu-Bekr gyermekként elhunyt, másik fiuk Sultanzade Mehmed Remzi Pasa (1660-1719) pedig befolyásos államférfi lett. Mehmed Remzi Pasa megházasodott és tőle eredeztethetőek a Safiye Sultanzadelerek, akiknek családja évszázodik jelen volt az Oszmán történelemben, a huszazdik században is többen említést tesznek róluk és talán ma is köztünk élnek. Safiyének és Abaza Hüseyin Pasának két fiuk mellett született egy lányuk is Rukiye (1680 előtt - 1697), aki megérte a felnőttkort és 1694-ben kiházasították Muruloglu Gürci Mehmed Pasához, többet azonban nem tudunk róla, mivel hamarosan meghalt.

Safiye 1680-ban hunyt el, amikor utolsó gyermekét hozta világra koraszülöttként. Safiyével együtt a fia, Abdullah is meghalt. Nagyapja, I. Ahmed mauzóleumában temették el fiával együtt. Férje nyolc évvel élte túl.

Rukiye

Rukiye valószínűleg Murad utolsó éveiben született, talán 1640-ben. Édesanyja kiléte nem ismert. Őt is unokaöccse IV. Mehmed házasította ki 1663 januárjában Şeytan Melek Divrikli Ibrahim Pasához, akivel két gyermeke született, Ayşe (?-1717) és Fatma (?-1727?). A lányok születési ideje nem ismert, általában az 1670-es évek végére teszik, ám valószínűbb, hogy jóval hamarabb, az esküvő után nemsokkal születtek. Fatma életéről valamivel többet tudunk, mint Ayşéről. Fatma férje Mısırlı Bıyıklı Mehmed Pasa volt, akitől egy fia született Mehmed Said.

Rukiye férje 1685-ben meghalt, az özvegy szultána valószínűleg azonban hamarosan újra férjhez ment. A történészek bár nem egyeznek ebben, ha mégis újra férjhez ment, akkor Gürcü Mehmed Pasa volt a kiválasztott. Hasonlóan bizonytalan Rukiye halálának ideje, annyit tudunk, hogy 1690 és 1703 között valamikor történhetett és hogy a Şehzade mecset komplexumban temették el.

További lányai

Hanzade 1631-ben jött világra, édesanyjának személye azonban nem ismert. Férje Nakkaş Mustafa Pasa volt, egészen a férfi 1657-es haláláig. Házasságuk gyermektelen maradt és Hanzade megözvegyülése után sem ment újra férjhez. 1675-ben halt meg.

Ayşe édesanyjának kiléte és születési ideje sem ismert. 1655 előtt ment férjhez Malatuk Süleyman Pasához.

Egy névtelen szultána, aki 1627-ben született 1640-ben ment férjhez Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasához.

Egy másik névtelen szultána Ammarzade Mehmed Pasa felesége lett 1648 előtt, de nem tudunk semmi mást róla.

Az előbbi lányok mellett Muradnak voltak további lányai, akik gyermekkorukban haltak meg, így például Hafsa, akiről semmit sem tudunk és Esmehan, aki 1633 előtt született és egyesek szerint csecsemőként meg is halt. Ám mivel I. Musztafa mauzóleumában helyezték örök nyugalomra felmerül, hogy Musztafa 1639-es halálát követően halt meg ő is. Nem lett volna ugyanis logikus a lányt újratemetni Musztafa mauzóleumában, hiszen Murad többi gyermekét sem temették soha újra. Mind ott nyugszanak, ahová eredtileg temették őket. Egyesek szerint Muradnak volt egy Gevherhan nevű lánya is, mások szerint ez a gyermek Ibrahimé volt, akárhogy is a kislány gyermekkorában meghalt.

Anıtkabir Hakkında...

Yapımı 9 yılda tamamlanan yaklaşık 150 bin ton ağırlığındaki Anıtkabir, heykellerinden süslemelerine, kulelerinden kabartmalarına değin bir çok özel anlamla yüklü...

Anıtkabir Komutanlığı’ndan alınan bilgiye göre, yapımına 9 Ekim 1944’te başlanan ve 1 Eylül 1953’te tamamlanan Anıtkabir için 1941’de açılan yarışmaya, İkinci Dünya Savaşı’nın en çetin günleri yaşanmasına karşın Türkiye, Almanya, İtalya, Avusturya, İsviçre, Fransa ve Çekoslovakya’dan toplam 49 proje katıldı. Ancak en çok beğenilen üç proje arasında Prof. Emin Onat ile Doç. Orhan Arda’nın “25” numaralı projesi kabul edildi.

750 bin metrekarelik bir alan üzerinde Aslanlı Yol, Tören Meydanı, Mozole ve On Kule’den oluşan Anıtkabir, denizden 907 metre yüksekte yer almaktadır. Ata’nın kabri 40 tonluk yekpare mermerden yapılan simgesel lahtin yaklaşık 7 metre altındaki Mezar Odası’nda bulunmaktadır. Atatürk, Selçuklu-Osmanlı kümbet mimarisine göre yapılmış sekizgen biçimindeki mezar odasında “vatan toprağında” yatmaktadır. Ata’nın kabrinin yer aldığı Mezar Odası’na, genelkurmay başkanının izniyle girilmektedir.

Türk milleti için kutsal değerlerle kuşatılan Anıtkabir’deki her mimari öğe ayrı bir anlam taşımaktadır. Ata’nın kabrine ulaşan 262 metrelik Aslanlı Yol’un sağ ve solunda bulunan 24 aslan, “24 Oğuz boyunu” simgelemektedir. Türk kültüründe güç simgesi olduğu için seçilen aslan figürlerinin çift olması milletin “birlik ve bütünlüğünü” vurgularken, aslanların kedi gibi yatar pozisyonda olması ise bu büyük gücün “barışseverliğini” sembolize etmektedir. Ziyaretçilerin de kabrin manevi atmosferine ayak uydurmaya yönlendirildiği Aslanlı Yol’da, taşlar Ata’nın huzuruna çıkan ların “başlarının öne eğik” olması için 5 santimlik çim boşluğu bırakılarak döşenmiştir.

Depreme karşı dayanıklı kılmak için tıpkı bir geminin su altındaki bölümü gibi toprağın içine yerleştirilen Anıtkabir’de Mozole’nin iç duvar ve zemini en nadide mermerlerle kaplanırken, tavanları renkli ve altın varaklı İtalyan mozaikleriyle süslenmiştir. Milli değerleri simgeleyen adlar verilen On Kule Selçuklu çadır mimarisinin özelliklerini yansıtan bir mimariyle yapıldı.

Anıtkabir’in 33,5 metre uzunluğundaki bayrak direğini, 1946 yılında Nazmi Cemal adlı bir Türk vatandaşı ABD’den gönderdi. 4 metresi kaidenin altında gömülü bulunan direğin 29,5 metresi görülmektedir.

Anıtkabir’deki Atatürk Müzesi de Ata’nın doldurulmuş köpeği Foks’tan tıraş takımlarına, bastonlarından aldığı çok özel armağanlara değin özel yaşamını yansıtan pek çok nadide parçaya ev sahipliği yapıyor. Ata’nın anne ve babasının fotografları, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin verdiği eski yazı ve Latin harfleriyle basılmış iki nüfus cüzdanı, göğsünde taşımayı en çok sevdiği madalyalardan biri olan 1917’de Sultan 5. Mehmet Reşat’ın verdiği Altın İmtiyaz Madalyası, Sovyet Mareşali Voroshilov ve İran Şahı Pehlevi’nin armağan ettiği değerli taşlarla süslü kılıçlar ve ince bir zevkin ürünü olan saatleri dikkat çekici parçalar arasındadır.

Atatürk’ün hem baston hem de tüfek olarak kullanılabilen özel silahı, manevi kızları Sabiha Gökçen ve Afet İnan’a armağan ettiği çok özel tabancaların da sergilendiği müzede, manevi kızı Rukiye Erkin’e armağan ettiği, ancak bir mercek yardımıyla okunabilen metal mahfazası içinde mini bir Kuran dikkati çekiyor.

Milletvekili mazbataları ve 1927 yılında yaklaşık 5 günde okuduğu Nutuk’un özgün metninin de yer aldığı müzede, Etiyopya Kralı Haile Selasiye’nin 1967 yılında Anıtkabir ziyaretinde mozoleye bıraktığı iki büyük gül dalıyla simgelenen gümüş çelenk de en ilginç parçalardandır.

Anıtkabir’deki Atatürk Müzesi’nde ayrıca okumaya büyük önem veren Atatürk’ün özel kitaplığında bulunan Türk ve İslam tarihi, dil, edebiyat, sosyal bilimler, bilim ve teknik konu- larındaki Türkçe, Osmanlıca, Fransızca, İngilizce, Almanca, Rusça, Arapça, Farsça, Slav dillerindeki toplam 3 bin 118 kitap da sergilenmektedir.

DAUGHTERS OF AHMED I AND MURAD IV

Ahmed I had six daughters who reached adulthood: Gevherhan, Ayşe, Fatma, Hanzade, Atike and Ümmügülsüm.

Gevherhan Sultan was Ahmed I’s eldest daughter; married twice to Ökuz Mehmed Pasha and Topal Recep Pasha. She died before 1631. I believe that Ragusian report of 1642 mentioning Ibrahim’s sister as sultana moglie di Mustafa Pascia detta Guiheri was mistaken for Hanzade(?). Again, in Osmanli devltinde kim kimdi it is clearly stated that Hanzade married Mustafa Pasha in 1643. So, it stays as a questionmark...

Atike Sultan was Ahmed I’s daughter born in late 1600s. She was married at the beginning of the reign of Murad IV to Koca Kenan Pasha, and eventually in 1652 to Doğancı Yusuf Pasha (Turhan personaly take care of chosing husband for her). I have just problem detecting year of her death; source claim 1672/74 (but I would say it was when Turhan’s daughter Atike died). One source Atatürk konferansları suggest her death date as 1660. Anyway, it seems that historians were unable to bifurcate daughter of Ahmed I and Ibrahim I, and they mixed them with each other at times…

Ayşe Sultan’s marriages are well dated and known. Exept two things: she married Hafiz Ahmed Pasha in 1622 (which I will prove in discussion below) and we don’t know who was her husband in early 1650s. Her last husband was Mustafa Pasha. She died in 1656.

Ümmügülsüm Sultan was born either in 1610 or 1617. Her only known husband during reign of Murad IV was some Halil Pasha. I maybe have found something about him by Süreyya Mehmed Bey:

Halil Paşa  - Enderun'dan yetişip mîrahûr-ı evvel olmuştu. 1048 'de (1638/ 39) veziriik verilerek Bağdadim fetih müjdesini İstanbura getirmiştir. Ardından saltanat değişikliği dolayısıyla gözden düşmüş olarak veffat etmiştir.

She was remarried in 1641 to governor of Herzegovina Ahmed Pasha. This marriage was also recognised by Kamil von Behr, and he referred to her as Patti Sultana. She was presented gifts as his wife in 1642, 1648 and 1655. Even she didn’t continue to receive Ragusian gifts, she was still alive during reign of Süleyman II, being alive in 1688, when she started to receive visits of Katherine Trumbull, wife of an English ambassador. On such visits, Katherine was able to collect news from the Ottoman court, such as the rumour in July 1690, later disproved, that Sultan Mehmed had died.

FATMA SULTAN

I would strongly suggest that not all marriages of Ahmed I’s daughter Fatma Sultan are oficially known. Evliya Çelebi mentioned that Fatma had twelve husbands before Melek Ahmed Pasha. I think that I am only person in this world that would claim now that his claims wasn’t sarcastic and that he was telling truth. Now,  ambassador’s report from 1st April of 1622 claimed that Sultan Osman succeeded to marry his half-sisters Ayşe Sultan and her younger sister, and that he plans to marry third sister soon (Gevherhan was already married to Recep Pasha):

Continua tuttavia la Maestà sua gia molti giorni nel detto serraglio, dove ha dissegnato maritar in diversi, soggetti 200 di quelle donne che vi habitano, havendo anche concluso matrimonio di due sue sorelle; una fu moglie di Nasuf, in Cafis Bassa di Van, che hora si trova in viaggio di ritorno, et fu gia capitan del Mare, et l’altra minor nel suo Tornacchi, che è un capo de Giannizzeri, di quelle, che hano cura delle Grue di sua maesta, et di quella caccia un'altra ne voleva dar al figliolo, che fu Cemecogli, ma egli sin hora si scusa con la povertà, riuscendo il matrimonio con le Sultane ne per la molto spesa, et per il loco predominio sopra i mariti, peso granissimo, et intollerabile dai Bassa di conto mai procurato. é stata la maestà sua questa settimana piu d’una volta incognita nell’Arsanele, per veder se si sollecita il lavoro, et ha donato al Capitan Bassa doi Veste a tal effetto, il quale affretta hora grandemente quello delle galee per mar negro, che saranno venti fra pochi giorni all’ordine per partir.

In work An Examination of Daily Politics and Factionalism at the Ottoman Imperial Court in Relation to the Regicide of Osman II (r.1618-22) (p. 66) author, using the same report, succeed to identify husbands of these Sultanas:

In late March 1622, the sultan married Ayşe Sultan, the ex-wife of former Grand Vizier Nasuh Pasha, to the Governor of Van, Hafız Ahmed Pasha, and his other sister, to the Governor of Damascus, Murtaza Pasha.

This is great, because the Sultana who was married to this Murtaza Pasha was (as Venetian report says) younger than Ayşe, and I would certainly say that this was Fatma’s first husband. The third one who was planned to be given in marriage to Murtaza Pasha’s son was most probably Hanzade. To remind you, Gevherhan was married for Recep Pasha at the time.

P.S. Who was daughter of Kosem Sultan refferend in letter she prepared for pasha in 1626 after she sent her daughter Fatma? She was never named. Historians made wrong assumption that it was Ayşe Sultan, because Hafiz Ahmed Pasha was Grand Vizier at the time, and they lacked information when did she married him, and with their free will chose is was Ayşe. I would made an assumption that she was most probably Ümmügülsüm. But still, we don’t know who this Pasha was…

At the beginning of reign of Murad IV, one of his sisters married Şehid Ali Pasha (d. 1624) (see Sakaoglu). This also was most probably Fatma, as her sisters Ayşe, Hanzade and Gevherhan had established husbands (Hafiz Ahmed Pasha, Bayram Agha and Topal Recep Pasha). According to Hammer, Atike was married before 1627 to Kenan Pasha who was seventh vizier in Divan. And please don’t ask me in which work, but I also found that Evliya stated that Grand Vizier Kemankeş Kara Ali Pasha married sister of Murad IV. I remember I was shocked, but I hope I will find again that same statement. Anyway, there is one more thing said in Demetrius Cantemir’s book The History of the Growth and Decay of the Ottoman Empire about one of Murad IV’s sister which occupied my mind, and made me think that it was about Fatma, because of her well-known greedy character:

Murad IV’s sister had four husbands in one year, and not the one of the marriages was celebrated according to the custom. They were accused of some crime, and put to death by the emperor, and their riches with all their effects assigned indeed to the Sultana as their law-wife…

Her (first officialy known) new husband was Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha, whom she married in 1624. She forcefully divorced him, as Murad IV’s was disturbed by Kösem’s extensive support for Hasan Pasha. Anyway, he continued his duties and even became Kapudan Pasha until he was poisoned by Recep Pasha in 1631, or rumour does say so (source: İstanbul armağanı, p. 117). After divorce, she was married in the same year to governor of Egypt Kara Mustafa Pasha, who was executed by Murad IV because of some action contrary to the law of God.

In work Fatma Sultan: A Sultana in the Shadow of Passion and Wealth on page 255, author cites source which claims she was married in 1629 to Sarraç Mustafa Pasha. Possibly.

I would now stress out that Fatma married Canpoladzade Mustafa Pasha in 1632. But between him and Sarraç Mustafa Pasha, she definitely had one more marriage. I will give you Venetian source I found in Vesna Miović’s work (p. 188, n. 258):

26.10.1631.     Il Capitan del Mare si speta qua col primo bon tempo…al quale si tiene per certo che e stata promessa la sultana vedova del Pascia morto a Scopie questa estate…

As you see, Fatma was promissed to Kapudan Pasha (you fill find out Canpoladzade Mustafa Pasha was Kapudan Pasha from October 1630 until July 1632 if you check the right sources) in October of 1631, before she married him in 1632. But the most interesting thing is that, when she was promised to him, she was widow of governor of Skopje who died at summer of 1631. This guy’s identity was Kaçanikli Mehmed Pasha, who was really governor of Skopje and died in 1631.

As you all know, Canpoladzade Mustafa Pasha was executed in 1636. With him, she had sons  Hüseyin and Süleyman. After his death, in 1637, she remarried Koça Yusuf Pasha (in 1638 records mentioned as his wife) and stayed with him in marriage until his death in 1658. They even had son, Ömer.

Her last three marriages were with Melek Ahmed Pasha, Kanbur Mustafa Pasha and Közbekçi Yusuf Pasha. But I would suggest she had at least a marriage between Yusuf Pasha’s death in 1658 and marriage with Ahmed Pasha in 1662.

According to work Fatma Sultan: A Sultana in the Shadow of Passion and Wealth, on page 256, we find out that Fatma Sultan died in 1671, most possibly during March:

Fatma Sultan 1671 yılında yaklaşık 66 yaşında vefat etti. Kaynaklarda Fatma Sultan’ın ölüm tarihiyle ilgili net bir bilgiye yer verilmemiş, genellikle Kozbekçi Yusuf Paşa ile evliliğinden sonra öldüğü ifade edilmiştir. Ölüm sebebi belli değildir. Terekesinde satılacak mücevherlerin kaydedildiği tarih 14 Zilkade 1081/25 Mart 1671 olarak gösterilmiştir (TSMA.d. 10457/124). Fatma Sultan’ın tasarrufunda bulunan Manastır kazası paşmaklık hassı 1671 yılının Mart ayından itibaren Haseki Sultan’a verilmiştir (MŞS. 21: 72, 75). Bu bilgilere göre Fatma Sultan’ın 1671 yılı başlarında vefat ettiği anlaşılmaktadır. Cenaze ve defin işlemlerinden sonra mirasın kayda geçirildiği düşünüldüğünde, terekenin toplanmasının zaman aldığı görülmektedir. Kabri, babası Sultan I. Ahmed’in türbesindedir (Mehmed Süreyya, 1996, s. 14)

Beside Ahmed I’s daughters, there were several unknown marriages of daughters of Murad IV. In Angelo Alessandri’s report from 1637, he says Murad IV had eleven-year-old daughter he intends to marry to Silahdar Mustafa Pasha. Additionally, it is known that thirteen-year-old daughter of Murad IV was married to Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasha in 1640 (Sakaoglu, Alderson). Now, what if I tell you that Silahdar Mustafa Pasha and Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasha were the same person? See this: https://www.suvakfi.org.tr/cesme/adalar/kaptan-i-derya-tuccarzade-silahdar-musahip-mustafa-pasa-cesmesi-h-1048-m-1638

Tüccarzade Silahdar Mustafa Pasha was executed in 1642 (not 1641 as Sakaoglu claims) as governor of Timisoara.       Also, work Life After the Harem: Female Palace Slaves, Patronage and the Imperial Ottoman Court , p. 83, says:

According to Naima, in 1642, the sword bearer, husband of Kaya Sultan (daughter of Murad IV) was murdered.

All in all, I want to point to fact that Kaya Sultan was the eldest daughter of Murad IV, born in 1627, who married Mustafa Pasha in 1640 until his execution. She remarried in 1644 to Melek Ahmed Pasha. I am conversant with statements of her being born in 1633, which I strongly evaluate as UNRELIABLE.

Only Öztuna claimed of Murad IV’s daughters, Hanzade Sultan and Gevherhan Sultan, married in August 1645. Hanzade married Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha (d. 1657; different from same-named husband of Hanzade’s same-named aunt, but this Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha died in 1653 – again, I am SUSPICIOUS about this), and Gevherhan Sultan, who married Haseki Mehmed Pasha (who actually married to Turhan’s daughter Ayşe Sultan in 1653). As Haseki Mehmed Pasha remarried in 1553 to daughter of Ibrahim, Gevherhan died before (even before 1648, as she didn’t receive gifts from Ragusians). Hanzade existed, she was still alive in 1662, and was at the time married to some vizier Musa Pasha.

Anyway, Hanzade Sultan (daughter of Ahmed I or eventually Murad IV) really had a son with Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha. From judicial report in 1685:

Next very interesting daughter of Murad IV was Rûkiye Sultan. She was born in early 1630s, as she married around 1640s to Küçük Musa Pasha. Musa Pasha was mistaken to be husband of daughter of Ahmed I, Abide Sultan – who didn’t exist. Abide Sultan was daughter of Murad III and wife of Muslu Agha, and Rûkiye was Küçük Musa Pasha’s wife. She received gifts in 1648 as his widow. Rûkiye Sultan was mentioned by Ragusians in 1655 (source: Acta et Diplomata Ragusina) as Ruchie sultana, moglie di Telak Mustafa passa. Also, in 1662, she received gifts as Rukie Sultana moglie di Zelak Mustai Passa, the same guy. I succeeded to figure out his identity, he was Dellak Mustafa Pasha. And very interestingly, Dellak Mustafa Pasha was executed in 1662 by orders of Mehmed IV. It seems that it is right information that Rûkiye Sultan was remarried in 1663 (Sakaoglu) to Seytan Ibrahim Pasha. And he was also executed in 1685, while being governor of Buda. I would note that it is incorrect she married Gürcü Mehmed Pasha, he was husband of Murad IV’s granddaughter, daughter of Safiye Sultan, Rûkiye Sultan (d. early 1697). She died in March 1696 (Sakaoglu) or 1716 (Alderson). What problem did Mehmed IV had with Rûkiye Sultan, so he executed both her husbands?

Safiye Sultan married at least two times: in 1649 she married firstly Haydarzade Mehmed Pasha. She was recorded in 1655 gifts as Safie sultana moglie di Haidar Sade, figlia di sultan Mourad, and as his widow in 1662. It was false information that he married Ibrahim’s daughter Kaya, she never existed. Anyway, her next known marriage was in probably 1663 to Sari Hasan Pasha, during which she died. But according to Ragusian envoys, he was referred in 1670 as Hussain passa. She died before 1676.

Murad IV also had a daughter named Hafsa Sultan. Only thing known about her is that she married some Hüseyin Pasha (source: İslâm ansiklopedisi: İslâm âlemi tarih, coğrafya, etnoğrafya ve biyografya lûgati – cilt 8; page 646). Actually, if you see Türkischer Biographischer Index (page 489), you will see there were eight Hüseyin Pashas who were governors during reign of Mehmed IV (different than Deli Hüseyin Pasha).

There is possibility that Murad IV had a daughter named Ayşe Sultan, but I am reasonably sceptical about it. I will explain it later, when I make a discussion of daughters of Ibrahim and Mehmed IV, which is the hardest task. I don’t know when I will make that one because my academic year starts in ten days, and I need more time to research and observe the Sultanas from the second half of the seventeenth century. Anyway…I really tried hard to find some unrecorded marriages of these analysed Sultanas, I’m glad that I have determined at least one-two marriages of Ahmed I’s daughter Fatma we didn’t know, and also with daughters of Murad IV.

This is also a topic I’m very interested in.

I’m going to sum up everything so it’s easier to read. I am very sorry but it’s long.

Gevherhan Sultan binti Ahmed I

she was Ahmed I’s eldest daughter (child?), named in honour of his great-aunt Gevherhan Sultan binti Selim II, who was still alive at the time of the princess’ birth. She firstly married Öküz Kara Mustafa Pasha in 1611-1612 (when the pasha came back from Egypt). Mustafa Pasha died in 1620. She secondly married Topal Recep Pasha during Osman II’s reign, with whom had a daughter, Safiye Hanımsultan, probably born in 1630. Gevherhan died before July 1631 (Muharram 1040), when an imperial decision calls her “deceased”. The Ragusian diplomats were wrong when they listed “Guiheri” among Ibrahim’s sisters in 1642. Gevherhan had already died by then. This is confirmed by a harem register dated February 1638-39 in which her daughter Safiye is listed but not her. (I should probably make a gifset about this but I deleted all my gifmaking stuff DDDD:)

Atike Sultan binti Ahmed I

as of now, we don’t have solid evidence on her date of birth, except for Öztuna who says she was born around 1614 (but he also says she’s Kasım’s twin…). Interestingly, Tezcan in Searching for Osman says that she was married to “the son of Ekmekçizade Ahmed Pasha (d. 1618), most probably in 1618”. Unfortunately, I don’t know who that is because I couldn’t find his name. Anyway, in the early years of Murad IV’s reign, Atike married Kenan Pasha, as Giustiniani in 1627 says that “Chinan” was married to the sultan’s sister:

Per ultimi sedevan nel Divano doi altri cognati del re, l’uno Chinan, l’altro Mustaffà, ambidoi poco prima del mio partir spediti quello in Grecia et questo in Natolia sotto titolo de inquisitori con suprema auttorità contra le violentie et tirannidi che si commettevano in quelle provintie, ma in effetto per cavar da esse grosse somme de denari per le guerre contra il Persiano.

Koca Sofu Kenan Pasha died in 1652 and in the same year, according to Uluçay, she married Doğancı Yusuf Pasha.

About her death, Uluçay says nothing. Sakaoğlu, on the other hand, says she died before 1670, that is when Doğancı Yusuf Pasha died. According to Öztuna she died in 1674. Interestingly, when talking about Atike’s tomb, Evliya Celebi mentions her as “Kenan Paşa Sultanı, Ahmed Han kızı Buy’unaz Âtike Sultan”, as if her other marriage never happened (or maybe he was away from Istanbul and didn’t know about it). If only we could date the first volume of the Seyahatnâme we could estimate Atike’s death DD:

Ayşe Sultan binti Ahmed I

I too have found some new (to me) information while I was researching Mehmed III’s daughters. Tezcan in Searching for Osman says that she was only betrothed to Karakaş Mehmed Pasha:

Ayşe Sultan, after the death of her husband in 1614, was promised to Karakaş Mehmed Pasha, probably during the reign of Osman II as well. Yet the latter was killed in battle at Khotin in 1621, and she was married to Hafiz Ahmed Pasha.

You’re right in saying that it’s Osman II who married off Ayşe to Hafiz Ahmed Pasha, because that’s what the Venetian ambassador said in April 1622:

Continua tuttavia la Maestà sua gia molti giorni nel detto serraglio, dove ha dissegnato maritar in diversi, soggetti 200 di quelle donne che vi habitano, havendo anche concluso matrimonio di due sue sorelle; una fu moglie di Nasuf, in Cafis Bassa di Van, che hora si trova in viaggio di ritorno, et fu gia capitan del Mare…

It is interesting, though, that Uluçay said that they were engaged in 1626 and married in 1627 (probably because the pasha wasn’t in Istanbul). I wonder what happened in 1627 because I doubt that it’s the date of consummation… she would have been 22. In any case the marriage was consummated because it produced two sons: Sultanzade Mustafa Bey and an unnamed one who probably died as a baby.

I don’t think she married someone else between Hezargratlı Voynuk Ahmed Pasha (m. 1645-49) and İbşir Mustafa Pasha (m. 1655).

I too thought that İbşir Mustafa Pasha was Ayşe’s last husband but Ragusian diplomats mention a “Aise Sultana moglie di Suleiman Passa” on 28 July 1662, so maybe Öztuna is right in saying that her last husband was actually Malatyalı Koca Süleyman Pasha? On the other hand, Alderson says that the princess married to Koca Süleyman Pasha (also called Ermeni) was Murad IV’s daughter but, annoyingly, doesn’t give any sources.

According to Kütükoğlu, who wrote Malatyalı Koca Süleyman Pasha’s entry in the Islamic Encyclopedia, the Ayşe Sultan he married was Ibrahim’s daughter, adding that Alderson was mistaken in identifying her as a daughter of Murad IV. The only problem is he says that the princess was later married to İbşir Mustafa Pasha… which is impossible.

So, basically, everyone is confused.

Ümmügülsüm Sultan binti Ahmed I

I think it’s impossible to say when she was born. I don’t know who Kamil von Behr is and google didn’t give me any answers…

Anyway, I really don’t know who this Halil Pasha could be because he doesn’t have a nickname so he could be anyone. The one you found in Sicill-i Osmani is a contemporary of Murad IV and therefore of Ahmed I’s daughters so it could be him.

Fatma Sultan binti Ahmed I

So, I don’t know whether to trust everything Evliya Celebi said because he was known to exaggerate things.

Anyways, Çiçek says that in late March 1622 a sister younger than Ayşe married the governor of Damascus, Murtaza Pasha. Murtaza Pasha was governor of Damascus until 1623 (did he die? Who knows). However, in this register, Fatma is unmarried:

A privy purse register from 1622 gives the names of five unmarried princesses, who may be daughters of Ahmed, Osman II, and even Mehmed III: Ümm-i Külsum, Hanzade, Halime, Fatma, and Akile. (Tezcan, B. - Searching for Osman, p. 334, n. 58)

Of course it could have been written before March 1622 but Ayşe (who married Hafiz Ahmed Pasha at the same time) is not among these princesses. It’s interesting, though, that Atike too is absent.

P.S. Who was daughter of Kosem Sultan referred in letter she prepared for pasha in 1626 after she sent her daughter Fatma? She was never named. Historians made wrong assumption that it was Ayşe Sultan, because Hafiz Ahmed Pasha was Grand Vizier at the time, and they lacked information when did she married him, and with their free will chose is was Ayşe. I would made an assumption that she was most probably Ümmügülsüm. But still, we don’t know who this Pasha was…

Well, I mean, Peirce has identified the pasha. As Uluçay believes that Hafiz Ahmed Pasha and Ayşe were married in 1626, this letter makes sense.

In 1626 or thereabout she wrote to the grand vezir Hafiz Ahmed Pasha proposing marriage to one of her daughters: “Whenever you’re ready, let me know and I’ll act accordingly. We’ll take care of you right away. I have a princess ready. I’ll do just as I did when I sent out my Fatma.” Hafiz Ahmed became the third husband of Ayşe. (Peirce, Leslie P. - The Imperial Harem, p. 148)

I don’t particularly like the assumption that Peirce (or other historians) “with their free will chose Ayşe”. If the letter is dated 1626 ca and the grand vizier at the time was Hafiz Ahmed Pasha, then it’s only logical that Peirce (or others) say: she’s talking about Ayşe. I don’t see anything wrong with that tbh.

If Kösem is not talking about Hafiz Ahmed Pasha’s marriage, though, then the princess could be any unmarried princess in the harem at the time. As Valide Sultan and Regent she arranged all the marriages, not only her daughters’.

Şehid Ali Pasha… Alderson didn’t give any sources for that claim, and the only Şehid Ali Pasha I’ve found is Fatma binti Ahmed III’s husband (so he died in 1716).

Let’s move on to Dimitrie Kantemir’s book:

So, Kantemir wasn’t a contemporary. He lived in Istanbul in 1688-91 and again in 1693-1710. His work, Historia incrementorum atque decrementorum Aulae Othomanicae (History of the Rise and Fall of the Ottoman Empire), was written in Istanbul before 1710 and completed in Russia in 1717. This is what he says about a sister of Murad IV’s:

Murad IV’s Sister had four Husbands in one year, and not one of the Marriages appears to have been consummated. For as soon as the Nuptials were celebrated according to custom, they were accus’d of some crime, and put to death by the Emperor, and their Riches with all their effects assign’d indeed to the Sultana as his lawful Wife, but in reality brought into the royal Treasury (p. 179)

This quote is a little vague. It doesn’t say who this princess is and, most importantly, when this happened. We assume it happened during Murad IV’s reign but we don’t know that with certainty. Also, Fatma's marriage to Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha lasted at least four years, as Murad IV divorced them in 1628.

About Kaçanikli Mehmed Pasha, I have found in Kaçanikli Mehmed Paşa Vakfiyesi ve Kütüphanesi that he may have died before 1631:

Although it was reported that he died in 1631, according to the Divan-ı Hümayun records, he died before 1616 (Kul, 2013: 2001). (p. 1847)

Unfortunately I couldn’t get access to E. Kul’s PhD thesis “XVII. yüzyılda Üsküb şehri”, which is the source.

Anyway, let’s move on.

Tezcan in Searching for Osman says this:

During the reign of Murad IV, a daughter of Ahmed was married to Berber Mustafa Pasha; upon the execution of her husband, she married Sarrac Hasan Pasha. After the death of her second husband, she married Janpoladzade Mustafa Pasha, who was executed by the orders of Murad IV in 1045/1635-6. This princess seems to be Fatma Sultan, who, probably after some other marriages, married Melek Ahmed Pasha in 1662. Melek Ahmed Pasha, who died in the same year, was not her last husband. (p. 334, n. 58)

I’m almost sure that Sarraç Hasan Pasha and Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha are the same man:

When he entered the palace, Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha was a “saddle (saraç) apprentice”

Tezcan says that Sarraç Hasan Pasha was a protegé of Hacı Mustafa Ağa (”Mustafa Agha sponsored the careers of such men as the future grand vizier Tabamyassi Mehmed Pasha, the vizier and finance minister Hasan Pasha, and two other viziers Sarrac Hasan Pasha and Hamidi Mustafa Pasha). Well, Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha was a protegé of Hacı Mustafa Ağa too.

I know Tezcan’s thesis is about Osman II but Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha is never mentioned, not even as Kapıcıbaşı.

Also, it’s not true that Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha became Grand Admiral after his divorce with Fatma because Giustinian in 1627 calls him “Capitan del mare”, which is the Italian translation of Kapudan-ı Derya.

For some reason, though, Civelek and Çakır’s essay İhtiras ve Servetin Gölgesinde Bir Sultan: Fatma Sultan calls him Sarrac Mustafa Pasha. I couldn’t find anything about him.

About this: “Il Capitan del Mare si speta qua col primo bon tempo..., al quale si tiene per certo che e stata promessa la sultana vedova del Pascia morto a Scopie questa estate...”. Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha died on his way to Buda, on 1 August 1631 (some say poisoned by Topal Recep Pasha, as you said). I think he’s the pasha “morto a Scopie questa estate”

(I know Skopje is not in Greece but bear with me)

I don’t think the Ragusian diplomat is saying that that princess is the widow of the governor of Skopje, but that her husband simply died in Skopje that year (I first thought it had happened during a battle or a rebellion). It is certainly interesting that Çatalcalı Hasan Pasha died on 1 August 1631 on his way to Buda, between Yenişehir and Tırhala (Greece).

I know he and Fatma were already divorced but I think that’s only the way the Ragusian diplomat chose to refer to her (as princesses were most often referred to as wives of some pasha). Maybe with more sentences from that dispatch it becomes clearer.

Thanks to İhtiras ve Servetin Gölgesinde Bir Sultan: Fatma Sultan we found out that Fatma had a son with Koca Yusuf Pasha who was alive at least until 1671 when he was noted as one of her heirs, so that’s definitely new information.

As for new marriages, I wouldn’t change anything at the moment. I personally don’t think she kept remarrying so fast.

Let’s move on to Murad IV’s daughters.

Kaya Ismihan Sultan binti Murad IV

Alderson doesn’t give any source for this supposed marriage between an unnamed princess and Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasha (which, interestingly, he says happened in 1640). On the other hand, it’s documented that Kösem and the Grand Vizier blocked the marriage between Kaya and said Tüccarzade Mustafa Pasha (who was Silahdar Mustafa Pasha, yes):

The Queen mother and the Vizier who foresaw their inevitable ruin if they did not undermine this union by its principal foundation, asked Mustafa for fifteen hundred thousand crowns; Mustafa delivered this sum in less than fifteen days, but as he saw that his enemies, having found it so easy to pay it, still wanted to make him ask for new loans, he had them tell him that he knew well that their hatred desired his blood rather than his money, that he was ready to satisfy them, and that if conscience had not arrested his despair, he had already performed the office of the executioner that he expected at any time from them. Notwithstanding this abandonment, they did not have the boldness to undertake anything openly against his life, fearing to irritate the Princess his Lover and to raise the militia; But to make believe that they wished rather to change his condition into one amenable to his grief, than to ruin him, they asked him to resign his office of Capudan Pasha in favour of a Page of the Serrail named Yusuph, and gave him the Government of Buda, where he could more solitarily than at Court, vacillate to the resentment of his affliction. Mustafa to whom all things were indifferent, except tears and sighs, consented to all that was desired, and when he was countermanded on the road to Temisuar, he went thither without murmuring, although it is one of the smallest Governments of Romelia. Thus this inconsolable Pasha still drags out a languid life, in spite of his enemies who continually watch to ruin it, and in spite of the means that his grief employs to seek to die. (Les Voyage du Sieur du Loir, 124-26)

(Translation is a bit wonky I’ll admit it but I used Google Translate because old French is hard)

I do agree, though, that Kaya Ismihan was Murad IV’s eldest daughter (who survived infanthood). Foscarini in 1637 states:

Per quanto ho inteso di figliuole femmine il Re ne ha tre, la maggiore che è di nove anni, pare destinata per moglie al Bei Siclictar amata assai da Sua Maestà (Firpo, Relazioni, p. 766)

In 1640, Contarini says that Kaya is twelve years old. Considering that she was the only one with a betrothed, I’d say she was the eldest.

I don’t think that Naima quote proves that Kaya, in the end, married Silahdar Mustafa Pasha. I don’t think it happened at all. Also because Melek Ahmed Pasha too was a Silahdar so I think the two things were conflated into one and the author got confused. On the other hand, I think Evliya Celebi would have mentioned if Kaya had had a marriage before the one with Melek Ahmed Pasha.

I think it was Kaya’s betrothal with Tüccarzade Silahdar Mustafa Pasha which Alderson confused with a marriage.

Funnily, Öztuna says that Kaya had been betrothed as a baby to Abaza Mehmed Pasha (from the family of Melek Ahmed Pasha) but the pasha had been executed. She had then been betrothed to Hayder Ağazade Mehmed Pasha in 1643 but this betrothal too didn’t lead to marriage (He later married her sister Safiye). I don’t know how much of this is true.

About Hanzade binti Murad IV and Gevherhan binti Murad IV, @rhaenahanzades and I had reached the conclusion that Hanzade was Hanzade binti Ahmed I and Gevherhan was Gevherhan binti Ibrahim.

I personally think that Murad IV’s daughters who reached adulthood were Kaya Ismihan, Rukiye and Safiye.

Rukiye Sultan binti Murad IV

I agree that Abide binti Ahmed I didn’t exist, it seems to have been an oversight by some historians because some of Murad III’s daughters were very young (even infants) when he died, so it makes sense that they had long lives.

According to Ragusian diplomats, Rukiye had the following husbands:

Küçük Musa Pasha

Zelak Mustafa Pasha

Şeytân Divrikli Ibrahim Pasha, with whom she had two daughters

I’m going to be honest, I couldn’t find this Dellak Mustafa Pasha anywhere. I did look up what Dellak means and it seems quite the strange nickname to give a pasha because it means devil.

Anyway, I don’t think Mehmed IV had a specific problem with Rukiye but Ibrahim Pasha was executed in Belgrade in 1685 (according to Öztuna) so he was probably part of those executions Mehmed IV had ordered because of the failed Vienna siege. I know Wikipedia is not the best source but “Ibrahim of Buda” is listed among the Ottoman commanders under Grand Vizier Merzifonlu Mustafa Pasha.

Safiye Sultan binti Murad IV

Mmh, I think Safiye and Hafsa are the same person (Ragusian diplomats call her “Saffie” which could sound like Hafsa if you pronounce it Sàffie instead of Saffìe). While it’s true that Uluçay says she married Sari Hasan Pasha (possibly after Haydarağazade Mehmed Pasha), Öztuna says she married Abaza Hüseyin Pasha, and this seems to be confirmed by Ragusian diplomats who, in 1670, said she was married to Hussain Pascia

There is a Hafsa Sultan among Murad IV’s children in Devletler ve Hanedanlar but she seems to have died in infanthood.

Geçtiğimiz günlerde İzmir'in kurtuluş kutlamalarında konuşan, İzmir Büyükşehir Belediyesi Başkanı Tunç Soyer'in Osmanlı hakkında sarf ettiği sözler büyük tepki çekmişti. Bunun üzerine Tarihçi İlber Ortaylı'nın son Padişah Sultan Vahîdeddin (VI. Mehmed) hakkındaki konuşması sosyal medyada viral oldu. Türk Tarih Kurumu Şeref Üyesi, Akademisyen ve Yazar Prof. Dr. İlber Ortaylı kendisine sorulan soru üzerine son Padişah Vahideddin hakkında şunları söylüyor: “Osmanlı İmparatorluğu çökmemiştir. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu bir rejim olarak kendisini fesh etmiştir, çok açık bir şekilde. Son padişah bu feshi kabul etmiştir. Yani milletin içinden çıkan bir umumi meclis monarşiyi lav etmiştir, padişah da bu feshi kabul etmiştir. Çünkü hadise çıkarmadan, kendisine sadık kuvvetlerle direnebilecekken direnmeden, kan dökmeden ülkeyi terk etmiştir. Bu durumu fazla büyütmenin anlamı yok. Çünkü sıkınt��lar içinde, sefaletle, parasızlıkla ve yaşlılıkla yaşamını yitirmiştir. Bu kadar basit! Tacirler kendilerine borçlu olduğunu söyleyip cesedini haczetmeye çalışmışlardır. Kızı Rukiye Sabiha Sultan, getirdiği pırlantalarla hacizi kaldırtmıştır. Bu sefer de kim gömecek kavgası başlamıştır. Kimse cesedine sahip çıkmamıştır. Ta ki Ayşe Sultan'ın o zamanki eşi (Abdülhamid Han'ın damadı olan) Ahmet Nami Bey, cesedi kabul edene kadar. Sultan'ın cesedi, Lübnan üzerinden Şam'a getirilip orada gömülmüştür.” Prof. Dr. Ortaylı, sözlerine şöyle devam ediyor; “Bu görüldüğü kadar basit bir tarihtir. Bunu çeşitli şekillerde yorumlayabilirsiniz ama kusura bakmayın bu tarihçilik olmuyor!” https://youtu.be/57N6mE1Z2fA
