unusual facts about Damat Ibrahim Pasha


Damat Ibrahim Pasha

He is also called with the title "Damat" (Turkish: bridegroom), because he was a bridegroom to the Ottoman dynasty by marrying Ayşe, one of the sultan's daughters.


Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha

Although he married Suleiman's sister, Hatice Sultan, and was as such a bridegroom (Damat) to the Ottoman dynasty, this title is not frequently used by historians in association with him, possibly in order not to confuse him with other grand viziers who were namesakes (Damat Ibrahim Pasha and Nevşehirli Damat Ibrahim Pasha).
