Hanzade Sultan was an Ottoman princess. She was the daughter of Sultan Ahmed I (r. 1603–1617) and Kösem Sultan. She was a sister of Osman II (r. 1618–1622), Murad IV (r. 1623–1640) and Ibrahim (r. 1640–1648), and the paternal aunt of Mehmed IV (r. 1648–1687). Hanzade is known for her marriage to Bayram Pasha (died 26 August 1638) who was an Ottoman grand vizier from 1637 to 1638 and the Ottoman governor of Egypt from 1626 to 1628. Then she married Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha.

Biography

She was a daughter of Sultan Ahmed I and Kösem Sultan.[1] She had many brothers three of whom became the Ottoman sultans: Osman II, Murad IV and Ibrahim.

She was married to Bayram Pasha on 1623. After Bayram's death (1638), she married Nakkaş Mustafa Pasha.

Late in her brother Ibrahim's reign, she fell, for reasons unknown, in disgrace and was submitted, alongside her sisters Ayşe and Fatma and niece Kaya Sultan, to the indignity of subordination of his concubines. He took away their lands and wealth, and made them serve his newest haseki, Hümaşah, by standing at attention like servants while she ate and by fetching and holding the soap, basin and the pitcher of water with which she washed her hands.[2]

She was buried in her brother Ibrahim's tomb in Haghia Sophia.
