Hatice Aynışah Sultan (Шаблон:Lang-ota, "respectful lady" and "Truth of the Şah", Amasya, 1463 – Bursa, 1514) was an Ottoman princess, daughter of Sultan Bayezid II (reign 1481–1512) and half-sister of Sultan Selim I (reign 1512–1520) of the Ottoman Empire.

Life

Aynışah Sultan, was born in Amasya on 1463, during her father's princedom. Her mother was his consort Şirin Hatun; thus she had one younger full-brother, Şehzade Abdullah, born in 1465, who died in 1484 (the first son of Bayezid). She was the eldest child of her father.Шаблон:Sfn

In 1489Шаблон:Sfn or 1490,Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Aynışah was married firstly to Göde Sultanzade Ahmed Bey, son of Muhammad Mirza Ugurlu of the Aq QoyunluШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn and her aunt Gevherhan Hatun and thus her own cousin. There is a possibility that, since Ahmed had already been living in the Sultan's court for a long time, the marriage took place at an even earlier date.Шаблон:Sfn Göde Ahmed later took part in the fight for the Aq Qoyunlu throne and was eventually murdered, during an uprising in Azerbaijan on 14 December 1497,Шаблон:Sfn after a brief rule over the Aq Qoyunlu lands.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

At the turn of the 1500s or a little later, as evidenced by a list of gifts, Aynışah was married secondly to Yahya Pasha, a prominent statesman and military man under her father and grandfather Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror, and head of what became an influential clan of frontier officials. Of Albanian origin, he was appointed twice sanjak-bey (provincial governor) of Bosnia and Nicopolis, twice Beylerbey (governor-general) of Anatolia, thrice Beylerbey of Rumeli, Second Vizier in July 1505, and supposedly, briefly Grand Vizier in 1505. He died at Edirne in mid-1511.Шаблон:Sfn

Aynışah kept correspondence with both her father, Bayezid, and brother Selim, as has been proven by surviving letters of hers.Шаблон:Sfn

She was still alive and on good terms with the latter when he deposed the former in 1512, as evident in a letter she, like her sister Ilaldi,Шаблон:Sfn wrote him to congratulate him on his ascension.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

In around 1506,Шаблон:Sfn she built a mekteb (meaning elementary school) in Alemdar vicinity of Fatih, Istanbul, close to where Hacı Beşir Ağa Külliye (meaning Complex) was later erected. To this school she bequeathed her property. Шаблон:Sfn

It is uncertain where she is buried, whether in Bursa with her mother and brother or at her foundation and Aynışah Sultan buried in the same tomb as her mother Şirin and brother Abdullah, in Bursa, is her niece of the same name, Abdullah's daughter.[1][2]Шаблон:Sfn

Issue

With Göde Ahmed, Aynışah had two daughters and a son:

  • Neslihan Hanımsultan; married to Şehzade Alaeddin,Шаблон:Sfn son of Şehzade Ahmed, himself one of Aynışah's half-siblings. She had a daughter, Hvandi Sultan, married to Sunullah Bey, sanjak-bey of Kastamonu.
  • Hanzade Hanımsultan; married in 1508Шаблон:Sfn her cousin Sultanzade Yahyapaşaoğlu Bali Bey,Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn son of Şahzade Sultan (daughter of Bayezid II). The union was a failure, as the couple lived in separation and the princess, per a report of her behaviour to Sultan Selim in 1516, engaged in a string of scandalous acts. Caught committing adultery with a man at Skopje, who was killed along with six members of her household, she then relocated against permission to Istanbul where she took a young Quran reciter, known as Dellakoğlu Bak, as a lover, bearing him a daughter who died aged approximately six months old. Upon his death of malaria at Babaeski, en route from Edirne to Istanbul, she found a new companion in his brother.Шаблон:Sfn The letter's author, most likely Selim's son and her own cousin, the future Suleiman the Magnificent, then based at Edirne, credited her acts to the help of her ″boundless and unparalleled″ wealth and several named procuring servants.Шаблон:Sfn
  • Sultanzade Zeyneddin BeyШаблон:Sfn (May/June 1497 - 1508); reportedly born the same day that news of Göde Ahmed's takeover of the Ağ Qoyunlu throne was received.Шаблон:Sfn
