 | | Mustafa himself was a product of the Palace School, and after serving as the agha of the Privy Chamber, became the ser destarî (chief turban keeper) and personal companion of the sultan in 1663-4. |
 | | Mustafa Pa?a had three sons from his previous marriage(s), in addition to which the couple are recorded, over eleven years, as bringing forth four sons of their own. |
