She married Abdulmejid in 1842. She was given the title of "Third Ikbal" and later "Second Ikbal". The same year, she gave birth to her first child, a son Şehzade Mehmed Ziyaeddin.[1] The prince died young.[2] On 6 August 1848, she gave birth to her second child, a daughter, Behice Sultan in the Old Çırağan Palace.[1]

In 1850 she gave birth to twins, Şehzade Mehmed Nizameddin and Şehzade Mehmed Bahaeddin.[3] Abdulmejid was on a trip in Anatolia, and received the news of their birth through his mother, Bezmiâlem Sultan.[4] Both the princes died young.[3]

She died on 2 January 1853, for the pain of the loss of three children and tuberculosis, and was buried in New Mosque, Istanbul.[2][5] Her daughter Behice Sultan was adopted by one of Abdülmejid's other consort, Şayan Kadın.
