Nadile Sultan (30 September 1856 - 18 January 1882) was the daughter of Sultan Caliph Abdülmecid I and his seventh secondary Kadınefendi, Şayeste Hanım.[1]

Nadile Sultan was born in the same year as her sister, Mediha Sultan. In her birth certificate it stated that she was born on Tuesday. She was five years old when her father Sultan Abdülmecid I died. There is no information regarding her childhood and youth, which coincided with the reign of her uncle Sultan Abdülaziz. As she died of tuberculosis at the age of 26, it seems apparent that she had battled against this illness all through her youth, like her older sister, Behice Sultan. When her brother Sultan Abdühamid succeeded the throne, he granted permission for the marriages of Behice Sultan to Hamid Bey and Nadile Sultan to Imperial Aid Circassian Mehmed Paşa and their weddings was held on October 6, 1876 in the Dolmabahçe Palace. Nadile Sultan died childless after six years of marriage and was buried in the Yenicami Havatin Tomb.
