[edit] There must be some mistake
The last sentence of this article states that Ibrahim I was deposed and murdered Italic textalong with his motherItalic text and a few others, in a coup led by the Grand Mufti. However, his mother Kosem Sultan succeeded him as ruler, according to the article on her, by serving as regent for his grandson. She could not have been killed by the Grand Mufti as the articles on her and Ibrahim's concubine Turhan Hatice state that it was Hatice who killed her. Is it possible Ibrahim was deposed by the Grand Mufti, but killed by his concubine at the same time as his mother? The article on Kosem Sultan does not state that she deposed him, so I will now edit the article to say simply that he was deposed in a coup led by the Grand Mufti.Amyzex 15:04, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Another problem
The article on Kosem Sultan seems to indicate that at least two of Ibrahim's concubines outlived him. Chances are the story about the harem was apocryphal, made up by the Grand Mufti or even Ibrahim's mother to justify the coup. We should get a historian of the Ottoman Empire involved in this discussion, but in the meantime I'm going to edit.Amyzex 15:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
