Hafize Hafsa Sultan (; ante 1494 â 10 July 1538) was an Ottoman princess, daughter of Selim I and his favorite Hafsa Hatun. She was therefore the sister of Suleiman the Magnificent.
Hafize, also called Hafsa, Hafife, Hafisa or Hafiza in the sources, was born before 1494 in Trebizond, on the Black Sea, by the then à Âehzade Selim, son of Bayezid II and governor of the province. Her mother was Hafsa Hatun, Selim's favorite, who in 1494 give birth Selim's successor, Suleiman.
In 1512, her father became Sultan, while Hafize was already married in 1511 and lived with her husband. When her husband became Grand Vizier, she moved with him to Constantinople.
Hafize Sultan married twice.
She married for the first time in 1511. Her first husband was Grand Vizier Dukaginzade Ahmed Pasha, executed in 1515. Hafize was his third wife, and Ahmed Pasha was no stranger to dynastic marriages: he had previously been married to Hafize's cousin, Gevherà Âah Hanimsultan, and both his sons from his first and second marriages also married members of the dynasty.
Her second husband, married in 1522, was Boà Ânak Mustafa Pasha. From this marriage she had her only child, a son, Sultanzade Kara Osman à Âah Pasha.
Hafize died on 10 July 1538 in Constantinople. She was buried in the à Âehzadeler türbesi in the Yavuz Selim Mosque.
