Suleiman II (April 15, 1642 – June 22/23 1691) (Ottoman Turkish: Süleyman-i sani) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1687 to 1691. The younger brother of Mehmed IV (1648–87), Suleiman II was born at Topkapi Palace in Istanbul and had spent most of his life in the kafes (cage), a kind of luxurious prison for princes of the blood within the Topkapi Palace (it was designed to ensure that none could organize a rebellion). His mother was Saliha Dilâsub Sultan, a Valide Sultan of Serbian descent.[citation needed]

When he was approached to accept the throne after his brother's   deposition in 1687, Suleiman II assumed that the delegation had come to   kill him and it was only with the greatest persuasion that he could be   tempted out of the palace to be ceremonially girded with the Sword of Osman.

Hardly able to take control of events himself, Suleiman II nevertheless made a shrewd choice by appointing Köprülü Fazil Mustafa Pasha as his Grand Vizier. Under Köprülü's leadership the Turks halted an Austrian advance into Serbia and crushed an uprising in Bulgaria. Suleiman II died at Edirne Palace in 1691. He married Khadija, without issue.
