Süleyman Çelebi
Ottoman prince, son of Sultan Bayezid I / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about Süleyman Çelebi, the prince and sultan. For the poet, see Süleyman Çelebi (poet).
In this Ottoman Turkish style name, the given name is Süleyman, the title is Çelebi (title), and there is no family name.
Süleyman Çelebi (also Emir Süleyman; fl. c. 1389/90[2] – 17 February 1411) was an Ottoman prince and a co-ruler of the Ottoman Empire for several years during the Ottoman Interregnum. There is a tradition of western origin, according to which Suleiman the Magnificent was "Suleiman II", but that tradition has been based on an erroneous assumption that Süleyman Çelebi was to be recognised as a legitimate sultan.[3]
