The youngest Ottoman princess to become a mother?

The problem is sometimes we don't have exact dates of births so it is quite difficult to say. Nevertheless, this is what I have found:

Selçuk Sultan, daughter of Bayezid II: her first child, Sultân-zâde Gaazî Husrev Bey/Paşa, seems to have been born when she was fifteen

Fatma Sultan, daughter of Selim II: her first (?) child, Sultân-zâde Ahmed Bey, seems to have been born when she was fifteen

Gevherhan Sultan, daughter of Ahmed I: if we believe 1608 to have been her date of birth, it seems that she had a child at the age of 12. Taking into consideration the whole trend, twelve seems to be a little too early even for a princess.

Hatice Sultan, daughter of Mehmed IV: her first child, Sultân-zâde Mehmed Bey, seems to have been born when she was sixteen.

Fatma Sultan, daughter of Ahmed III: her only (?) child, Sultân-zâde Mehmed Bey, seems to have been born when she was fourteen

Saliha Sultan, daughter of Ahmed III: her first child, Sultân-zâde Ahmed Bey, seems to have been born when she was fourteen

Ayşe Dürrüşehvar Hanım, daughter of Abdülhamid I: her first daughter, Atıyyetullâh Hanım, seems to have been born when she was around fifteen

Fatma Sultan, daughter of Abdülmecid I: her first child, Cemile Hanım-Sultân, was born when she was fifteen.

Mediha Sultan, daughter of Abdülmecid I: her only child, Sultân-zâde 'Abdurrahmân Sâmî Beyefendi, was born when she was fifteen

Without considering Gevherhan Sultan, which seems an anomaly but also could be the result of wrong information, it seems that the earliest that princesses gave birth was at the age of fourteen. Of course, we don’t have all the dates so there could have been earlier births.

Sultan Abdul Hamid I children?

Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar Hanım (1760?-5.1826): mother unknown, she was born before her father's accession and for this reason she was smuggled out of the kafes and raised outside. When Abdülhamid I ascended the throne, she was known as the sultan's adoptive daughter and given the virtual status of an Imperial princess but she never acquired the title of sultan. She married Nisâncı Ahmed Naşîf Efendi, who was favoured by her father Abdülhamid I, but after his death was executed by the new sultan Selim III. Together they had two daughters: Zeyneb Hanım-Sultân and Atıyyetullâh Hanım-Sultân. Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar Hanım was buried in the mausoleum of Nakş-ı Dil Valide Sultan in the Fatih Mosque.

She married Küçük Hüşeyn Paşa, who was 20 years her senior, leaving her a widow after 10 years of marriage. Afterwards, Esma Sultan decided not to re-marry even though she was only 25. She was influential in the enthronement of her brother Mustafa IV and even tried to re-instate him in 1808 together with her half-sister Hibetullah. Nevertheless, she became particularly close to Mahmud II and was considered his favourite sister even though they had different mothers. When she died, she was indeed buried in the mausoleum of Mahmud II and not in her father's.

Hibetullah Sultan (16.3.1789 - 18.9.1841): daughter of Fatma Şeb-safâ (or Şebisefa) Kadınefendi, she was born only a month before her father's death. She married Alâeddîn Paşa, the son of Hatice Sultan (daughter of Mustafa III) and Seyyid-Ahmed Paşa. The marriage was childless and left Hibetullah a young widow; she too decided not to marry again. In 1808 she tried to re-instate Mustafa IV after his deposition, but Mahmud II found out and forbade her to communicate with her half-sister Esma (the co-conspirator) and with the outside too. Nevertheless, she was given all the properties that had belonged to her mother, who had died in 1805. She was buried in the mausoleum of Mahmud II.

Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar Hanım was the eldest child of Abdülhamid I, born during his time in the kafes. She was supposed to be killed but her father managed to smuggle her out the palace and therefore she was raised outside. When Abdülhamid succeeded his brother Mustafa on the Ottoman throne, Ayşe was given the virtual status of an imperial princess, but never acquired the title of Sultan. At the age of 17, she married Ahmed Nazif Efendi, son of Hacı Selim Ağa, a bookshop owner in Üsküdar; Abdülhamid I doted on his son-in-law, but when Selim III succeeded him, he had both Ahmed Nazif Efendi and Hacı Selim Ağa executed in 1789. Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar decided not to marry again, so her half-brother Mahmud II prepared Kuruçeşme Palace for her, her mother (who had been kept a secret until that moment) and her daughters Atiyyetullah and Zeyneb Hanım. She died on 11 May 1831 and was buried in the mausoleum of Nakşıdil Valide Sultan. // Sedef Avcı as Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar

Hello,Could you list the Abdülhamid i’s daughters.

Hello! Sorry for the late reply but harem asks are way more complicated so they take more time.

Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar Hanım (1767 - 11.5.1831): she was born before her father became sultan and so she should have been killed. Abdülhamid, though, managed to smuggle her out of the palace and the princess was raised outside. Therefore she never acquired the title of Sultan even though her father doted on her: Abdülhamid I declared her his “adopted daughter” and her rank was virtually the same as his other daughters’. This is the reason why her father’s name is not present in her seal, as it should be. At 17, Durrüşşehvar married Ahmed Nazif Efendi, son of Hacı Selim Ağa, a bookshop owner in Üsküdar; the sultan doted on his son-in-law, but when Selim III succeeded him, he had both Ahmed Nazif Efendi and Hacı Selim Ağa executed in 1789. With her husband, Durrüşşehvar had two daughters: Atiyyetullah and Zeynep (born in 1789). After his execution, she decided not to marry again, so her half-brother Mahmud II had Kuruçeşme Palace prepared for her and for her mother, who had been kept a secret until that moment. Ayşe Dürrüşşehvar Hanım lived a comfortable life there until her death in 1831. She was buried in the garden of Nakşıdil Valide Sultan’s mausoleum. Her daughter Zeynep later married Izmir Rahmi Efendi.

Hatice Sultan (12.1.1776 - 8.11.1776): the identity of her mother is unknown. Since she was the first child of Abdülhamid I born during his sultanate, much importance was attached to her birth and even Fermanı (royal decrees) were issued to mark the event. For ten days, various kinds of demonstrations and entertainments were held in Istanbul and festivals were ordered throughout the Empire. Unfortunately, the little princess died on November 8th of the same year, and was buried in the Yeni Mosque.

Ayşe Sultan (30.7.1777 - 8.9.1777): second official daughter of Abdülhamid I, she only lived for 54 days. She was buried in the Yeni Mosque.

Esma Sultan “the Younger” (17.7.1778 - 4.6.1848): daughter of Ayşe Sineperver and elder sister of Mustafa IV. At 14 years old, her cousin Selim III married her to Küçük Hüseyin Paşa, who was 36 at the time. After her marriage she was known as “Kapudanpaşa Sultanı” (Kapudanpaşa being the title of her husband). Her palace became the centre of Istanbul society and the daughters of Mustafa III Şah, Beyhan, and Hatice Sultan were regulars there. Esma Sultan was widowed at the age of 25 but chose not to remarry agian. She was extremely influential in the enthronement of her brother Mustafa IV and the deposition of their uncle Selim III. Nevertheless, she became close to her half-brother Mahmud II too, who cherished her as his favourite sister and basically granted her total freedom in her life. It is said that even the son of King Louis-Philippe of France was attracted to the dazzling princess, whose clothes and jewels were always sought-after by rich women in the capital. Esma Sultan survived her brother Mahmud II and saw the reign of her nephew Abdülmecid. When she died, at 70 years old, she was not buried with her father but with her favourite brother, Mahmud II.

Rabia Sultan (20.3.1780 - 17.5.1780): she died after only 69 days and was buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Aynışah Sultan (10.7.1780 - 11.8.1780): buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Melekşah Sultan (28.1.1781 - 24.12.1781): died at the age of 11 months, buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Rabia Sultan (10.8.1781 - 13.2.1782): buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Fatma Sultan (12.12.1782 - 3.11.1785): she could be the Fatma Sultan for whom Mihrişah Valide Sultan built a fountain near the Fındıklı Molla Çelebi Mosque. She was buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Alemşah Sultan (11.11.1784 - 2.1786): because of her name she was mistaken for a prince by Alderson. Three days of festivals and celebrations were held for her birth, but she died only seventeen months later. She was buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Saliha Sultan (27.11.1786 - 5.6.1787): buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Emine Sultan (5.1.1788 - 3/5.1791): Abdülhamid I deeply hoped that at least this princess would survive, and showered her with gifts. She was given the properties who had belonged to Esma Sultan “the Elder” when she died in August 1788, and several Chechen entertainers were purchased for the little princess. Unfortunately the sultan died in 1789 and then Emine Sultan herself in 1791, of smallpox. She was buried in the Hamidiye Tomb.

Zekiye Sultan (?? - 20.3.1788): she doesn’t figure in Sicill-i Osmani but she is included among Abdülhamid I’s daughters in Cevdet’s History.

Hibetullah Sultan (6/16.3.1789 - 18.9.1841): daughter of Fatıma Şebisefa Kadın, she was Abdülhamid I’s latest child as she was born a month before his death. In 1801 she was promised to Alaeddin Paşa, son of Damad Seyyid Ahmed Paşa, and thus her cousin. They got married on 30 January 1804 in Kadırga Palace; a year later, her mother Fatima Şebisefa died. In 1808, Mustafa IV was deposed and Hibetullah tried to reinstate him, helping her sister Esma Sultan, but Mahmud II found out and forbade them to communicate with each other and to the outside. Her husband died at twenty-three years old, and Hibetullah chose not to remarry again. Her half-brother Mahmud II gave her all the properties that had belonged to her mother, and she lived in Kadırga Palace until her death at 52. She was buried in the mausoleum of Mahmud II.
