Hasan Agha [a] (fl. 1804) was the titular Ottoman governor of the Belgrade Pashalik in 1804, during the Serbian uprising against the Dahije.

Contents

In 1804, he was the titular Ottoman governor in Belgrade, who was pretendedly recognized as such by the Serbian rebel leadership. [1] The Dahije were the true rulers of the Belgrade Pashalik, and Hasan Pasha had no powers nor influence. [1] He informed the Grand Vizier about events in the Serb uprising against the Dahije. [2] Among those sent to the Zemun Meeting, held on 10 May [ O.S. 28 April] 1804, [3] to discuss peace in the pashalik between the Serbs and Dahije with Austrian mediation, were Rustem Efendi, the commander in Belgrade and divan-efendi (chief clerk) of Hasan Pasha. [4] The discussion failed. [5] Among exiled Ottoman officials of Hadji Mustafa Pasha's office, the former sipahi (noble cavalry) in Serbia, were defterdar (financial minister) Hasan Bey, kethüda (assistant) Veli Efendi and Ibrahim Bey Vidajić from Zvornik, who wrote accusations to the Porte regarding the Dahije. [6] The Dahije in turn sent Suleiman Pasha to the Porte to defend them and accuse the Serbs. [7] The Grand Vizier investigated and decided to issue a ferman (decree) appointing Bekir Pasha the new Vizier of Belgrade, to aid the Serbs against the Dahije. [8] Bekir Pasha arrived at Belgrade on 12 July 1804. [9]
