Biography[edit]

Fatma Haseki Sultan or Fatma Hatun was born to Kuyucu Murad Pasha,[1][2][3] who served as grand vizier of the Ottoman Empire during the reign of Ahmed I between 9 December 1606 and 5 August 1611 or was more likely a Bosnian slave. She died in 1586.[2] She was married to Ahmed in 1605.

She was the second of Ahmed I's three women and bore him three sons, Şehzade Cihangir, Şehzade Hasan and Şehzade Orhan, but all of them died in infancy except her daughter Abide Sultan who was born in 1618 shortly after Ahmed's death.

Venetian ambassador Simon Contarini, in his 1612 reports, suggests an incident that a (unnamed) daughter of Kuyucu Murad Pasha, like Akile Hatun, the wife of Ahmed's successor, Osman II and the daughter of Şeyhülislam Hacı Mehmed Esadullah Efendi, never entered the Imperial Harem.[4] According to Contarini, when roughly a decade earlier a daughter of Kuyucu Murad Pasha had wanted to enter the harem of Sultan Ahmed I, the harem stewardess (kethüda kadın) had discouraged her by arguing that she would lose her mind among so many slaves and her sons would probably be killed through the practice of fratricide.[5][4]
