Mehmed IV (Ottoman Turkish: محمد رابع Meḥmed-i rābi‘; also known as Avcı Mehmed, Mehmed the Hunter; January 2, 1642 – January 6, 1693) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1648 to 1687.

  • Mehmed IV (Ottoman Turkish: محمد رابع Meḥmed-i rābi‘; also known as Avcı Mehmed, Mehmed the Hunter; January 2, 1642 – January 6, 1693) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1648 to 1687. Taking the throne at age six, his reign was significant as he changed the nature of the Sultan's position forever by giving up most of his executive power to his Grand Vizier. While his early reign saw a short-lived revival of the Empire's fortunes, which saw the recapture of the Aegean islands and successful campaigns against Poland and Transylvania, things changed dramatically under his vizier, Kara Mustafa Pasha, who as less capable than his predecessors. Kara Mustafa's siege of Vienna ultimately led to a route at the hands of Poland and its allies, leading to a years long Ottoman withdrawal back to the Balkans. In 1658, Mehmed met with English Quaker Mary Fisher. Fisher believed God wanted her to make the visit. While her impression of the meeting was positive, the sultan's thoughts were not recorded. Mehmed IV also met with religious leader and self-proclaimed Jewish Messiah Sabbatai Tzevi, a meeting which ended with Tzevi's conversion to Islam in 1666. Mehmed was deposed and imprisoned in 1687. He received good treatment during his imprisonment. A plot to reinstate him was discovered and thwarted in 1691. Mehmed died in 1693 without regaining the sultanate.
