Biography

She was the Polish Jewish spouse of Ottoman Sultan Ibrahim I and the biological mother of Caliph of Islam Ottoman Ghazi Sultan Ahmed II Khan. However, she was not Valide Sultan to her son because she died four years before Ahmed II's accession to the throne in 1687 in Istanbul. She was regarded as the most beautiful wife of Sultan Ibrahim I. She was also known for her mild character, since she was not as ambitious for power as Turhan Hatice Sultan, who fought Kösem Sultan and triumphed when Kösem was murdered.

Her burial place

Her resting place is located at the tomb of Suleiman the Magnificent inside Süleymaniye Mosque in Istanbul.
