Dilfirib Kadın (Ottoman Turkish: دل فریب قادین; c. 1890 – c. 1952) was the fifth wife of Sultan Mehmed V of the Ottoman Empire.[1]

Life[]

Dilfirib Kadın was born in 1890.[2] She married Mehmed as his fifth wife.[1] She remained childless.[2] On 27 April 1909, after Mehmed's accession to the throne,[3] she was given the title of "Senior Ikbal".[4] She was later elevated the title of "Fourth Kadın".[5] Safiye Ünüvar, a teacher at the Palace School, who met her in 1915, described her being young and well educated.[6][7]

On 30 May 1918, Dilfirib met with the Empress Zita of Bourbon-Parma in the harem of Yıldız Palace, when the latter visited Istanbul with her husband Emperor Charles I of Austria. With her beauty, she won the Empress's appreciation.[8]

Dilfirib and Nazperver Kadın, Mehmed's fourth wife were with him,[9][10] when he died on 3 July 1918.[11] After the sultan's death, she remained in the Dolmabahçe Palace. When the imperial family went into exile in 1924, she moved in her villa located in Erenköy, where she died in 1952.[1][2]
