Fatma Sultan (Шаблон:Lang-ota; "one who abstain"; 19 June 1879 – 20 November 1932) was an Ottoman princess, the daughter of Sultan Murad V and Resan Hanım.
Early life
Fatma Sultan was born on 19 June 1879, during the third year of her family's confinement in Çırağan Palace. Her father was Murad V, son of Abdulmejid I and Şevkefza Kadın. She was named after Murad's favourite sister, Fatma Sultan, and after her maternal grandmother.[1] Her mother was Resan Hanım.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn She was the sixth child, and third daughter of her father and the eldest child of her mother. She had a sister, Aliye Sultan, one year younger than her. She was the first Murad's child born after his rise at the throne and deposition and the first born in the Çırağan Palace during his prisonery.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
According to Filizten Hanım, she was calm, dignified, serious-minded, polite, and gentle, differenti by her elder half-sisters, Hatice Sultan and Fehime Sultan. She spent an important part of her time in playing the piano and reading books in French.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Unlike her half-sisters, she chose not to leave the palace to marry before her father's death, because Abdülhamid II's condition was to never see her family again. After her father, Sultan Murad's death in 1904, her ordeal in the Çırağan Palace came to an end.Шаблон:Sfn
