Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other people Шаблон:Infobox Officeholder Dukaginzade Ahmed Pasha (Шаблон:Lang-sq; Шаблон:Lang-ota; Шаблон:Lang-tr; died 1515), born Progon Dukagjini, was a high-ranking statesman and military commander of the Ottoman Empire in the early 16th century. He hailed from the Albanian Dukagjini family, one of the strongest in pre-Ottoman medieval Albania.

By 1503, he had become sanjakbey of Ankara and was married to Gevherşah Sultan, daughter Ayşe Sultan (daughter of Sultan Bayezid II) and Guneyi Sinan Pasha, another Ottoman Albanian general, and had with her a son Dukakinzade Mehmed Pasha and a daughter Fatma Sultan. Dukaginzade Ahmed Pasha was one of the commanders who supported Prince Selim in the Ottoman succession dispute. In 1511, as a result of the large revolt of the janissaries, he became beylerbey of Anatolia.Шаблон:Sfn In his new position, he played an instrumental role in securing that Selim would be the next Sultan in 1512 and had an important impact in the military victory against Şehzade Ahmed, the pretender to the Ottoman throne on April 15, 1513, in Yenişehir. Dukaginzade Ahmed Pasha may have been the commander who captured Şehzade Ahmed in the battle.[1]

By the summer of 1513, he became joined as a vizier (minister) in the Imperial Council (diwan) and was responsible for the negotiations with Venice about possible Ottoman support to Venice against H.R.E. Charles V.[1] In 1514, Selim I began his campaign against the Safavids which culminated in the Battle of Chaldiran. At the beginning of the campaign, Dukaginzade Ahmed Pasha was at the head of the vanguard of 20,000 sipahi. His activity in the early stages of the campaign in contemporary sources is unclear, but in the battle of Chaldiran on August 23, 1514, he and the other viziers were at the centre of the battle line next to Selim.Шаблон:Sfn Around September 7, when the Ottoman army reached Tabriz, the Safavid capital, Dukaginzade was in the delegation which went ahead of the army in order to accept the city's surrender to Selim.Шаблон:Sfn

He was Grand Vizier of the empire between December 1514 and March 1515. Then he was executed by Selim I, who thought that he was involved in the ongoing revolt of the janissaries. His son, Dukakinzade Mehmed Pasha, was a governor in several regions including Egypt Eyalet. He built the Al-Adiliyah Mosque complex in Aleppo, Syria where his family was based.Шаблон:Sfn The El Adli Dukaginzade are his descendants.

In Ottoman sources, Dukaginzade have been used to refer to him.
