Hatice Âlime (Halime) Hüma Hatun (Ottoman Turkish: هما خاتون, c. 1410 - September 1449) was the fourth wife of Ottoman Sultan Murad II and was valide sultan during the first reign of her son Sultan Mehmed II for two years from 1444–1446.
Origin
There are several theories on her origin.
- Her name suggests that she came from Principality of Hum in Bosnia and Herzegovina. (Huma means "a girl/woman from Hum")
- According to the majority of sources she was a princess from the principality of Isfendiyarids and was the daughter of Isfendiyar Bey. Majority of sources have claim that she was the grand daughter Isfendiyar Bey and the daughter of Isfendiyar Bey's son Taceddin II Ibrahim Bey, the ruler of the Isfendiyarids.[citation needed] It is claimed she was born in 1410 in the Devrekani 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 Constantinople."[1]Template:Better source inline
- Some sources say that she was a princess from the Principality of Zeta and a relative of George Balša, Prince of Zeta,[2] or that she hailed from Zahumlje, known as Hum, hence her name.
- Other sources claim her as a French, while according to western sources she was a Jew of French descent, originally named Ester Stella.[3][page needed]
Life
She was married to Murad II in 1426. Little is known of her family background, apart from the fact that an Ottoman inscription (vakfiye) describes her as Hātun binti Abdullah (Daughter of Abdullah); at that time, people who converted to Islam were given the name Abdullah meaning Servant of God. [4]
She died in September 1449 in Bursa. Her tomb is located at the site known as "Hatuniye Kümbedi" (Hatuniye Tomb) to the east of Muradiye Mosque. The quarter where her tomb lies has been known thus far as Hüma Hatun Quarter.[5] Her name is not inscribed on the 1449 dated epitaph of the türbe, but she is praised as an excellent Muslim mother. In addition, her name is given as "Hüma Hatun", the mother of Mehmed II in Bursa Şeriyye sicils (The notebooks number 31, 201 and 370).
Hüma Hatun should not be confused with Tacünnisa Hatun, daughter of Isfendiyar Bey, the seventh ruler of Isfendiyarids.
