Atiye Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: عطیه سلطان; 2 January 1824 – 11 August 1850) was an Ottoman princess, the daughter of Sultan Mahmud II and Pervizifelek Kadın. She was the half-sister of Sultans Abdulmejid I and Abdulaziz.

Early life[]

Atiye Sultan was born on 2 January 1824 in the Topkapı Palace. Her father was Sultan Mahmud II, son of Sultan Abdul Hamid I and Nakşidil Sultan.[1] and her mother was Pervizifelek Kadın.[2][3] She had two full sisters, Hatice Sultan, one year younger than her,[4] and Fatma Sultan, four years younger than her.[5]

Marriage[]

At the age of fifteen her father betrothed her to Rodosizade Ahmed Fethi Pasha.[2] The marriage took place during the reign of her elder half-brother Abdulmejid I on 8 August 1840 in Eyüp,[1] when Atiye was sixteen and Ahmed Fethi was thirty nine years old.[6] The couple were given the Arnavutköyü Palace as their residence. After that, she lived in the Kuruçeşme Palace, Esma Sultan Palace and Eyüphan Villa located in Kağıthane, between Eyüp and Defterdar.[7][8]

The couple had two daughters, Seniye Hanımsultan, born on 3 October 1843, and Feride Hanımsultan, born on 30 May 1847. Both of them were born in the Kuruçeşme Palace.[1][7][8] Charles White, who visited Istanbul in 1843, said following about her:

Atya is a patroness of literature, and not without talent as a poetess.[9]

Death[]

Atiye Sultan died on 11 August 1850 at the age of twenty six, and was buried in the mausoleum of her father located in Divanyolu, Istanbul.[7]
