Moralı Ibrahim Pasha

Moralı Ibrahim Pasha ("Ibrahim Pasha of Morea"; died April or May 1725), also known as Aşçı Ibrahim Pasha ("the Cook") or Hacı Ibrahim Pasha or Ibrahim Pasha al-Kapudan, was an Ottoman statesman and grand admiral (Kapudan Pasha, 1707–09, 1717–18).[1]

For other people named Ibrahim Pasha, see Ibrahim Pasha (disambiguation).

Ibrahim Pasha served as the Ottoman governor of Egypt Eyalet (1709–10) but was then jailed and exiled to Sinop.[1][2][3] After being pardoned in 1713, he was appointed to the governorship of Aleppo Eyalet (1714, 1717), Sidon Eyalet (1714–16), Sanjak of Jerusalem (1716), and Damascus Eyalet (1716).[1]

In his second term as Kapudan Pasha, he reportedly destroyed a Venetian navy fleet. He died in April or May 1725.[1] Today, there is a street in Istanbul named after him (Moralı İbrahim Paşa Sokak).
