[edit]If you read in some books it says that she was a Queen if you look online it says she went from a slave to a Queen, and I know it could be wrong but if you put in google translate "Sultan" and translate it to Turkish underneath it will say all the words that it means including Queen, a lot of people and written books about her and said she was Queen.

She was a sex slave
[edit]This should be mentioned more often and throughout the text. Arnsonstidgley (talk) 17:56, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- It is already made clear. She was a slave and she was a concubine; hence, she was a sex slave. That is already stated in the article and will be clear to the reader.--Aciram (talk) 18:35, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
