Hatice Âlime Hümâ Khātûn (Ottoman Turkish: هما خاتون), Valide Sultan wife of Murad II and mother of Mehmed II, the Ottoman Sultan was born in the Devrekani[1] county of Kastamonu Province in modern day Turkey. Every year, people in Devrekani commemorate her birth as part of the "Celebrations for the Conquest of Istanbul."

Little is known of her family background, apart from the fact that an Ottoman inscription (vakfiye) describes her as Khātûn binti Abdullah (Daughter of Abdullah).[citation needed]
