Emine Mihrişah Kadınefendi (Devletlu İsmetlu Emine Mihr-î-Shâh Sultân İkinci Kadınefendi Hazretleri) née Jeannette (died 1732) was the French second concubine of Ottoman Sultan Ahmed III, and the mother of Mustafa III,[2][3] Şehzade Selim, Zeynep Sultan and Ümmügülsüm Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.

Biography

Emîne Mihr-î-Şâh[4] was born as Jeannette in France. However, she was never Valide Sultan to her son because she died in 1732, twenty-five years before Sultân Mustafa III's accession to the Ottoman throne.[5] Mehr-î-Shâh means "Sun" (lit. compassion, endearment, affection, and clemency) and "Sultân".

Her türbe

The resting place of Emine Mihrişah is located at the türbe of Turhan Hatice Vâlide Sultâna inside the Yeni Mosque in Eminönü, Istanbul.
