Hibetullah Sultan (Template:Lang-ota; 16 March 1789 – 18 September 1841) was an Ottoman princess, the daughter of Sultan Abdul Hamid I, and his wife Şebsefa Kadın. She was the half sister of Sultans Mustafa IV and Mahmud II.

Early life

Hibetullah Sultan was born on 16 March 1789 in the Topkapı Palace. Her father was Sultan Abdul Hamid I, and her mother was Şebsefa Kadın. She was the youngest child of her parents. She had a brother Şehzade Mehmed Nusret, [1] six years elder then her, two sisters, Alemşah Sultan,[2] four years elder then her, and Emine Sultan, one year elder then her.[1] After her father's death in 1789, she and her mother settled in the Old Palace.[3][4]

In 1801, when Hibetullah was twelve years old, her cousin Sultan Selim III betrothed her to Alaeddin Pasha, the son of Damad Seyyid Ahmed Pasha.[3][4] The marriage took place on 30 January 1803. The couple were given Kadırga Palace as their residence.[3]

In 1808, after the dethronement of her elder half-brother Sultan Mustafa IV, Hibetullah Sultan and her elder half-sister Esma Sultan, who were involved in state affairs, were kept under close surveillance by Sultan Mahmud II, and were forbade to make communications with outsiders.[3]

Hibetullah remained childless. She was widowed at Alaeddin Pasha's death in 1812. She was twenty three years old.[3] Like the princesses of her generation she didn’t remarried.

After the death of her mother, all her çiftlıks of her mother were assigned to Hibetullah Sultan.[5][6]
