Hatice Sultan (Template:Lang-ota; Ḫadīce Sulṭān) was an Ottoman princess, daughter of Sultan Selim I and Hafsa Sultan. She was the sister of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent.

Biography

Hatice's birth date is unknown, but she had to be born before 1494.[2] She was the daughter of Şehzade Selim (the future Selim I) and his concubine Hafsa. She may have married Damat Iskender Pasha in 1509, an Ottoman governor and later admiral who was executed in 1515.[2]

It had long been believed that Hatice Sultan subsequently married the Grand Vizier Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha. However, in the late 2000s research conducted by the historian Ebru Turan revealed that this claim was not based on solid evidence, and that in fact no such marriage ever took place between them. As a result, historians now generally agree that Ibrahim married another woman, Muhsine Hatun, and not Hatice.[3] She might have secondly married Çoban Mustafa Pasha son of Iskender Pasha. She had at least one daughter.

Hatice Sultan had her mosque built in Aksaray in 1543-44 and later died and was buried in a separate tomb next to her parents in the graveyard of Yavuz Sultan Selim Mosque .

In the TV series Muhteşem Yüzyıl, Hatice Sultan is played by Turkish-German actress Selma Ergeç.[4] In the series, she is inaccurately portrayed as Ibrahim Pasha's wife and mother of his children, as per the old presumption.
