Ümmügülsüm Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: ام کلثوم سلطان‎; "mother with chubby face"; c. 1677 - 9 May 1720), called also Ümmi Sultan or Gülsüm Sultan, was an Ottoman princess, the daughter of Sultan Mehmed IV, and his Haseki Emetullah Rabia Gülnuş Sultan. She was the sister of Sultans Mustafa II and Ahmed III.

Early life

[edit]

Ümmügülsüm Sultan, called also Ümmi Sultan or Gülsüm Sultan, was born in 1677 circa as daughter of Mehmed IV and his Haseki Emetullah Rabia Gülnuş Sultan.[1] She had two full brothers, Mustafa II and Ahmed III, and three full sisters, Hatice Sultan, Ayşe Sultan and Fatma Emetullah Sultan.[2][3]

Marriage

[edit]

Her father was deposed in 1687, and so was unable to arrange a marriage for her. And so her uncle who loved her very much, Sultan Ahmed II arranged her marriage to Silahdar Çerkes Osman Pasha. The wedding took place on 15 December 1693 in the Edirne Palace. Her dowry was fixed to 600,000 kuruş.[4][5] The wedding was also attended by Sultan Ahmed's consort Rabia Sultan.[6] The couple were given Sinan Pasha Palace as their residence. The two together had three daughters, Mihrişah Hanımsultan (dead in 1701), Hatice Hanımsultan (dead in 1698) and Fatma Hanımsultan (1699 - 1730).[4][5]

All her daughters were buried with Ümmügülsüm in Turhan Turbesi, New Mosque.[4]

Death

[edit]

Ümmügülsüm Sultan died on 9 May 1720 of smallpox, before her forty birthday, and was buried in the mausoleum of her grandmother at Mausoleum of Turhan Sultan, New Mosque, Istanbul, Turkey. [4][1]
