Kösem Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: كوسم سلطان, ) (c. 1589 – 2 September 1651) – also known as Mahpeyker Sultan (from the Persian compound ماه پيكر Māh-peyker meaning "Moon face") – was one of the most powerful women in Ottoman history. Kösem Sultan achieved power and influenced the politics of the Ottoman Empire when she became haseki sultan as favourite consort and later second legal wife of Ottoman Sultan Ahmed I (r. 1603–1617) (after Mahfiruze Hatice Sultan , who was the Sultan's first legal wife) and valide sultan as mother of Murad IV (r. 1623–1640) and Ibrahim (r. 1640–1648), and grandmother of Mehmed IV (r. 1648–1687).
