        Early life

        Şehzade Mehmed Burhaneddin was born on 23 May 1849 in the Old Beylerbeyi Palace.[1][2] His father was Sultan Abdulmejid I, son of Sultan Mahmud II and Bezmiâlem Sultan and his mother was Nükhetsezâ Hanım.[1][3] He was circumcised on 9 April 1857 in the Dolmabahçe Palace, together with his brothers Şehzade Mehmed Reşad (future Mehmed V), Şehzade Ahmed Kemaleddin and Şehzade Ahmed Nureddin.[4][5][6][7]

        Personal life

        Burhaneddin married three times and had one son. One of his wives was Mestinaz Hanım. She was born on 20 September 1851 in Tbilisi, Georgia.[8] They married on 4 May 1872 in the Dolmabahçe Palace. In 1874, she gave birth to Şehzade Ibrahim Tevfik.[9] She died on 20 April 1909 in the Dolmabahçe Palace, and was buried in Yavuz Selim Mosque.[8] Another wife was Şadruh Hanım.[10] They married in 1873.[11] She died in 1930.[12] Another wife was Aşkıdilber Hanım.[10]

        In widowhood, Mestinaz, Şadruh and Aşkıdilber received a pension of 10,000 kuruş, 2880 kuruş, and 4000 kuruş respectively. In 1909, Şadruh's and Aşkıdilber's pension was raised to 10,000 kuruş each.[10]

        He owned a villa in Üsküdar. The villa was built in 1860, and was located on a hill between the Tophanelioğlu-Kısıklı road the Bosphorus Bridge ring road.[13]

        Later life and death

        Sultan Abdul Hamid II trusted Burhaneddin. During his reign, he had tightened the security ring around the Çırağan Palace, where Murad V and his family were confined. Access to the palace was so severely curtailed that visitors were practically limited to the princes, such as Burhaneddin and Mehmed Reşad.[14]

        Burhaneddin died of tuberculosis[13] at the age of twenty-seven on 4 November 1876,[3] and was buried in the mausoleum of his father in Yavuz Selim Mosque, Istanbul.[15] His brother, Abdul Hamid named a battleship and one of his sons after him. He also brought up his son in his care.[16]
