Damat Hasan Pasha

Moralı Damat Hasan Pasha (Modern Turkish: Moralı Enişte Hasan Pasha or Moralı Damat Hasan Pasha; c. 1658, Tripolice, Morea – 1713, Urfa) was a Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire of Greek origin. He was also a two-time governor of Egypt.

Not to be confused with Mollacık Hasan Pasha, who served as the Ottoman governor of Egypt (1687) immediately before Damat Hasan Pasha, or Yemişçi Hasan Pasha, who was also a damat.

Biography

He was born of Greek ancestry[1][2] in the Morea, and was converted to Islam early on at the Enderun School through the Devşirme Christian child tax system.[3] He initially served as an Armourer and rose to the post of Grand Vizier, where he served between 1703 and 1704.[4] He married Hatice Sultan, the daughter of Sultan Mehmed IV,[5] taking on the epithet "Damat" (Turkish: bridesgroom, son-in-law), and was eventually exiled with his wife to Izmit.

Shortly afterward a new grand vizier, Hasan, came to take the place of the old one, and he held his post during the period we are interested in: from November 16, 1703, to September 28, 1704. He was the new sultan's son-in-law… "he was a very honest and comparatively humane pasha of Greek origin and cannot be suspected of selling the sultan's pages to a foreigner."
