Abdurrahman Nurettin Pasha, also known as Nurettin Pasha (1833, Kütahya – 1912, Istanbul), was an Ottoman statesman. He was Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire from May 2, 1882 to July 12, 1882.[1][2] His son-in-law was Turkish musicologist Hüseyin Sadeddin Arel, and his nephew was Münir Nurettin Selçuk, the Turkish classical musician.

Life

Born in Kütahya in 1833, Abdurrahman was a descendent of the Germiyanids, who flourished in that area after the decline and eventual fall of the Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm. His father, Hajji Ali Pasha, was an important local official.
